Let’s flashback to the ’90s and refresh the phrase, “things that make you go hmmm.” Well, we’ve received several tips that Eliza Esquivel, who was promoted just over a year ago to the position of director of planning at TBWA\Chiat\Day New York, has turned in her resignation after spending nearly four years at the agency. We contacted Esquivel directly to find out if she’s indeed leaving, and the rather soft-spoken exec in turn offered us a curt “no comment.”
We will let you draw your own conclusions on that one, and since TBWA still seems to be boycotting officially communicating with us (we think), we’ll have to wait for the newswires or the other pubs to find out where she’s headed to next. Wherever she lands, Esquivel carries quite the resume on the planning side, having worked at the likes of W+K Amsterdam, DDB and JWT New York prior to joining Chiat NY.
