X’s global marketing head Angela Zepeda steps down
Former Hyundai CMO steps down from Elon Musk’s platform
LOS ANGELES: Angela Zepeda has stepped down as head of global marketing at X, bringing her 18-month stint at the social media platform to a close.
The development, which was not formally announced by the company, has surfaced through updates to Zepeda’s LinkedIn profile, indicating that she exited the role in February 2026. Her departure comes at a time when X continues to evolve its brand identity and advertiser relationships following its high-profile rebranding.
Zepeda joined X in September 2024, tasked with shaping global marketing strategy and strengthening the platform’s appeal to brands. Her tenure coincided with a period of transition, as the company worked to redefine its positioning in a competitive and often turbulent social media landscape.
Prior to her role at X, Zepeda held senior leadership positions at Hyundai Motor America, where she served as chief marketing officer for nearly five years. She briefly took on the role of chief creative officer before moving on, marking a notable chapter in her corporate career.
Her résumé spans decades across advertising and marketing, including leadership roles at INNOCEAN USA, where she served as senior vice president and managing director, as well as stints at Quigley-Simpson and Lowe Campbell Ewald. Over the years, she has built a reputation for steering brand strategy and driving business growth across industries.
Neither Zepeda nor X has publicly commented on the move, and her next step remains unclear. Still, her exit adds another twist to the ongoing narrative at X, where leadership shifts have become almost as frequent as timeline refreshes.
