Wendy Balogh
Project Manager
Wendy has been a project manager for over 10 years working at various agencies in the US and Canada. While in Toronto, she worked at the award winning Roche Macaulay & Partners on the Mercedes-Benz and Sprite Accounts.
Before joining Tangible, she was considered the first employee at Hadrian’s Wall — a well-regarded Chicago-based agency that was acquired by Toronto-based MDC Partners’ Zig in 2006. Since Hadrian’s Wall opened in 2001, she had been responsible for keeping everyone on time and budget on jobs ranging from print campaigns for Hewitt and the National Geographic Channel, to outdoor and broadcast buys for the Illinois Department of Public Health, DePaul University and Stir Crazy Restaurants respectively. Over the past few years she added overseeing a wide range of interactive projects to her background working simultaneously with Lakonic and Tangible.
Wendy’s short stint racing stock cars might explain why she’s gone through 3 cars in the past 5 years. When she’s not zooming around, she is volunteering with the Make-A-Wish Foundation or sitting somewhere strumming a guitar.
