Wendy Hafen

Associate

Growing up in the shadow of Six Flags Magic Mountain, our lil' monkey chose at an early age to swing life from a different rope. She broke off a family tree whose roots were deeply embedded in the University of Southern California, instead choosing Arizona State University.

Originally pursuing photography, Wendy realized that wouldn't be a career worth going ape over - tough to operate a camera with those stubby, furry fingers, so she earned a degree in Mass Communications from the Interdisciplinary Studies program.

Her instincts led her to Reggie and the DSPR Training Program. Mastering our Monkey See, Monkey Do philosophy, she learned quickly from the Silverbacks (one of our pet names for David and Sam) and was promoted to associate in record time. In addition to herding her baby monkeys (the trainees) Wendy beats her chest for real estate developers, publishers, restaurateurs and physicians.

In her free time, Wendy hangs with her prime-mates at First Fridays, The Tempe Improv and US Airways Arena (she's really there to see the Gorilla in those tight, orange Suns shorts). Oddly, a can of Diet Dr. Pepper and some chocolate chip cookies will tempt this swinger more than a loaf of hot banana bread.
