WBAM History
Wilson Binkley Advertising & Marketing started off as a small.....

 |
David Wilson, Managing Partner
has more than 24 years of combined advertising agency experience. After a brief stint as a closet ventriloquist, David utilized his marketing and advertising skills to establish the largest full-service agency in Southern New Mexico, and the only one that features a Smithsonian-quality radio and jukebox museum. Wilson holds a bachelor’s degree in advertising from New Mexico State University.

Ken Binkley, Partner
holds a bachelors degree in advertising, and a master of business administration degree from NMSU. A former new-waver, Ken has replaced Oingo Boingo recordings with daily talk radio, which helps him focus on his account executive duties and office management. Ken began working with David as an intern, a noble occupation prior to Monica Lewinsky, and began working with the agency full-time in 1992.

Rob Sharp, Partner/Creative Director
graduated from New Mexico State University with a bachelor’s degree in advertising, after investing a small fortune in faculty bribes. As the agency's creative director, he is responsible for the conceptualization, writing and directing of broadcast and print materials, and coordinates public relations campaigns. He dreams of an early retirement operating a sweatshop for bootleg Converse high-tops in Paraguay.

Yvonne Rocha, Office Manager
is responsible for all billing and budgeting for the agency’s clientele. Rocha, who shares an uncanny resemblance to Salma Hayek, has a degree from Doña Ana Branch Community College, and also coordinates all co-op advertising claims on behalf of agency clients. She can quote all of Salma Hayek's lines from 1997's "Fools Rush In", but has chosen to ignore "El Mariachi.” She is the official agency princess.

Danette Nevarez, Traffic Coordinator
is responsible for confirming media orders and placement, as well as verifying shipment of various advertising materials to the appropriate media. She is able to do all this between raves and dance parties, which she attends almost nightly. She graduated from New Mexico State University with a bachelor’s degree in marketing and techno music, with a minor in glow sticks. She is currently looking for a 1969 Camaro to restore and smoke the boys with.

Brittany Johnson, Account Executive
blew into the agency's front door with a hot Texas wind, all tangled up in a tumbleweed. Her extensive marketing experience in the energy and real estate industries made her sassy, and her degree in Communication and Business from Texas A&M University is solid proof of how smart she is. Brittany brings a substantial amount of social media knowledge and creativity to the agency, and taught the partners how to 'unfriend' people from Facebook. She is a whiz at coming up with effective, creative marketing solutions for her clients.

Rachel Schneider, Media Director
is responsible for researching, negotiating and buying all media for the agency, including outdoor, print and broadcast. A reformed cheerleader, Schneider has a bachelor’s degree in broadcast journalism from New Mexico State University, studied media and marketing research at the National Media School in Phoenix, and sought enlightenment on the lofty spires of Machu Picchu. Her ten year’s experience in advertising sales and management make up for her squandered youth, including an unfortunate story involving international smuggling of one-legged parrots. Ask her.

Kent Harkey, Video
is the mastermind behind Wilson Binkley's cutting-edge audio and visual productions. A certified EMT, he understands the importance of attention to detail when it comes to both rescuing people in distress, taking care of his two cats and designing out-of-this-world, blow-your-mind videos for our clients. Kent is a student of Doña Ana Community College's Creative Media Technology Program, where he has worked on major film projects such as "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull", and picked up an affinity for all things vintage, including Humphrey Bogart, photography and ultra-sophisticated throwback clothing.

Jessica Pena, Direct Mail
is our resident college student, balancing her daily duties in the direct mail and printing department with the strenuous schedule of a student working toward a degree in Graphic Design from Doña Ana Community College. Another native Texan, Jessica loves all things artsy, and can often be found playing video games, reading comics or getting lost in a sci-fi movie. She may be small in stature, but this girl has a huge appetite; we often wonder where she puts all that sushi!

Shannon Murray-Villalobos, Art Director

She has a degree in visual communications from the Colorado Institute of Art, where she was awarded "Best Graphics" and "Most New Wavest" honors by 1992 graduates.

Jacob Barrio, Graphic Designer
uses his creative and artistic genius to knock our clients socks off on a regular basis. Jacob left his hometown of Deming to obtain an Associate's Degree in Graphic Design from Dona Ana Community College. After finishing school, he went on to gain extensive experience in photo editing and design techniques, keeping his DJ skills sharp after hours. (He can craft a bad remix.) Affectionately referred to by the ladies as "Hot Cocoa", Jacob is one tough dude. He even has the biceps to prove it.

J. Lopez, Digital Services Director
Up to this point in life, J. Lopez has rejected the bourgeois conventions of institutionalized design and struck a blow for the talented proletariat by establishing himself as a self-taught visionary. An illustrator that later learned web design, J. wasted his talents on print ads until he discovered the Internet while searching for the latest Britney Spears news. Since then, he has accumulated years of cutting-edge web design, and is well-versed in the latest programming and techniques for the web. Still suspicious of the mediocrity inherent in the system, J. continues to remain vigilant in his crusade for outstanding web design.
