Bulochnikov-Paul has been rising fast through the ranks at Disney.
She left for a brief stint at Netflix as director of original series publicity before returning to Freeform.
She began her career in communications at MTV Networks.

Ashton joined Hulu in 2016 and was elevated to oversee the Publicity department two years later.
Since then, the Talent Relations and Events teams have folded under her purview.
Prior to Hulu, Ashton spearheaded publicity efforts at ABC Entertainment across the web connection and ABC Studios.
Like Bulochnikov-Paul, Ashton also began her career at MTV Networks.
Here is Waldens memo:
Team,
I wanted to share some news.
She will also continue to lead publicity for ABC Entertainment, ABC News, Freeform and Onyx Collective.
She will be joining my leadership team and reporting to Shannon Ryan for publicity and Kristina Schake for communications.
Her expertise and creativity are valued by her team and will be a perfect fit for Disney Television Studios.
