Meet-a-Mom, Jamie Quinn
What’s your favorite family activity in the Hinsdale, Western Springs, La Grange, Clarendon Hills Area ?
In the winter, we enjoy the Christmas walking in downtown Hinsdale. You can catch Santa too! In the summer, we love walking into town to attend “Uniquely Thursdays”
How many children do you have and what are their age(s)?
My husband and I have two sweet girls. Lily-3 , Olivia- 2
How long have you lived in the Hinsdale/WS/La Grange/CH Area? What made you decide to live here?
I am a Hinsdale native. I was born and raised here. (HCHS class of 2003) I briefly ventured to the city for a short time where I met my husband, but ultimately, we knew we wanted to raise our family in Hinsdale. We love the small-town vibes and top notch schools.
Where’s your favorite place to eat and/or shop in the Hinsdale/WS/La Grange/CH Area?
I love Vintage Charm where you can find great gifts for friends or a quick outfit for the evening. As far as good places to eat, we like Pages for breakfast. The donuts are delicious!
What’s one thing people would be surprised to know about you?
I met my husband at a dog park years ago. I am surprised that he wanted anything to do with me considering I have a giant 120lb Labrador, who at the time, was running wild through the park!
Anyone special you’d like to thank for helping you through parenthood?
My husband for taking early morning wake ups and screaming children so gracefully like a champ! He also does it with no complaints! But seriously…he has made it possible to run my business and still be a dedicated mom.
Are you involved in a business venture, a local organization, a creative endeavor, or in the corporate world? Please share!
Yes, I am a local residential real estate agent with d’aprile properties. (homesbyquinn.com) I love the western suburbs and couldn’t think of a better place to run my business. As a native Hinsdalean, I have a true understanding of the market. Today’s housing market can be complex. Navigating the path to the closing table requires experience, an established process and more than just a little hard work! My favorite part of the job is handing the keys over to my clients after a successful smooth close. I truly wouldn’t be where I am today without the support, coaching and motivating leadership at d’aprile properties!
How has this community been instrumental in getting you to where you are now?
Since growing up in Hinsdale, I have watched the community thrive over the years. Many of my friends from elementary school are still my friends today and some even still live here. This just speaks to what a great community this truly is.
