“Celebrated as a leading brand innovator by Adweek, Heredia has spent more than two decades in marketing, building some of the most iconic youth-focused brands in the entertainment world. Heredia was previously vice president of brand engagement and revenue at Walt Disney Co., where he oversaw all brand engagement on behalf of Disney Channels Worldwide, leading the revitalization of the iconic Radio Disney brand, including the Radio Disney Music Awards—music’s biggest event for families,” states a release.
