Estrella Media, the transformative Spanish-language media company, serving a diverse multiplatform Latino audience in the U.S., today announced that Enrique Guillen has joined the company as its Chief Content Officer. Guillen joins Estrella Media from NBCUniversal, where he served as Executive Vice President, Commercial Strategy and International Development for the Universal Studio Group. He will report to CEO Peter Markham and be based in the company’s Burbank offices.
Guillen will oversee the U.S. domestic and global content strategy for Estrella Media’s television, streaming, digital, audio, events, and digital businesses, including developing, producing, and acquiring all television and film content, overseeing network and station programming, news, sports, digital content, and studio productions.
