Alyssa Quinlan

Alyssa D. Quinlan is Chief Executive Officer of Hindman Auctions & Appraisals, overseeing strategy and day-to-day operations for Hindman, as well as the firm’s ongoing expansion in locations, services and expertise. She has 25 years of diversified business experience, with leadership experience in private banking and wealth management in addition to fine art auction and appraisal services. She led business development and Trusts & Estates at Leslie Hindman Auctioneers from 2003 to 2010, before joining J.P. Morgan to work with clients in the firm’s private banking division. In 2016, she moved to international appraisal firm Gurr Johns, where she oversaw the opening of the Chicago branch and contributed to the expansion of the company’s presence throughout the Midwest and Texas. Since returning to Hindman in 2019 as Chief Business Development Officer, Quinlan has renewed her commitment to auctioneering —a skill she first learned from her mentor Leslie Hindman. As a sought-after charity auctioneer, she has helped to raise funds for organizations such as The Salvation Army and Rush University Woman’s Board. She is an active member of Chief, the professional network for women executive leaders, and supports arts and cultural organizations in her hometown of Chicago, including the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Luminarts Cultural Foundation, and the Women’s Board of Ravinia. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from DePauw University.
