Passionate about Filipino trend culture in the Gen Z demographic, Espinase will lead the social team and work across the agency to elevate the social media campaigns of clients upon his return to BBDO Guerrero.

"We’re happy to have Espinase back onboard with us. We look forward to the fresh perspectives and energy Espinase will bring to our team and our brands,” said Francine Kahn-Gonzalez, chief executive officer of BBDO Guerrero.

"BBDO Guerrero introduced me to the world of advertising and now, a decade later, I’m excited to return to where it all began" said Espinase.

"In just my first month back, I've seen that the agency is brimming with creative talent and innovative ideas. My team is committed to bringing those ideas to life in their most vibrant forms and leading the charge in social-first strategies and ideas together with new social-based innovations for our clients."
