Alyssa Quinlan, Northern Trust Wealth Management

Quinlan will lead the firm’s relationships with professional advisors, including law and accounting firms, business advisory and investment consultants. These collaborations often intersect with client needs around unique assets such as fine art and collectibles, which the firm has a long history of addressing through its comprehensive wealth planning and fiduciary services. Building on that foundation, Quinlan will develop a dedicated platform that addresses the increasingly sophisticated needs of collectors and families with significant art holdings.

“Our clients rely on a network of trusted advisors, and those relationships are central to delivering sophisticated advice,” Albright said. “With Alyssa’s addition, we are strengthening our advisor engagement strategy while further integrating guidance around unique assets—from valuation and liquidity planning to estate and legacy strategies.”

Quinlan brings 25 years of experience across wealth management, private banking and fine art. She most recently served as CEO of Freeman’s Auctions & Appraisals, where she oversaw firmwide operations, led strategic growth initiatives and guided a major merger integration. In addition, she launched and managed the Chicago office of Gurr Johns, an art advisory and appraisal group.

Earlier in her career, Quinlan held leadership roles at J.P. Morgan Chase, BMO Private Bank and Smith Barney/Citigroup Asset Management. She also served in senior positions at Leslie Hindman Auctioneers and Peterson Consulting.

Quinlan is an active member of YPO, The Economic Club of Chicago, The Chicago Network and the Chicago Estate Planning Council, and supports arts and cultural organizations in Chicago, including the Museum of Contemporary Art, the Luminarts Cultural Foundation and the Women’s Board of Ravinia. She holds a BA from DePauw University.
