“Sofia and Francisco have made invaluable contributions to the culture of ASA in terms of both strategic leadership and client service. In partnership, they have played instrumental roles in the continued growth of the agency. As an agency, we do not look at media and creative as separate departments; they work together seamlessly in delivering unique integrated marketing solutions to our clients, and that is exactly how Francisco and Sofia work,” said Anita Santiago, founder of ASA. Santiago continued, “Francisco and Sofia are true management partners and this promotion is in recognition of their value to the agency and the vital roles they will play in its future.”

Francisco Letelier is an advertising veteran with over 20 years of experience. He joined ASA six years ago, after working in key creative executive positions at agencies including Leo Burnett in Chicago and La Agencia de Orci in Los Angeles.

Sofia Escamilla joined ASA three years ago as media director. Her distinguished career spans more than 12 years working at agencies such as Western and La Agencia de Orci.
