    Mirtha Quintana-Toomey

    I was born in Cuba and moved to Spain to attend high school. Afterward, I moved to Chicago, Illinois, where I learned English at Northeastern Illinois University and earned a Bachelor’s degree in Foreign Languages. I also earned two Master’s degrees—one in Spanish Literature from Roosevelt University and another in School Administration from Loyola University—and a Doctorate in Educational Leadership from DePaul University. I’ve worked in Chicago Public Schools for over 38 years as an educator, administrator, principal, and founder of World Language HS at Greater Lawndale Campus.

    After retiring from education, I pursued my passion for real estate as an independent agent, helping clients buy, invest in, and rent properties. An accident that fractured my ankle kept me immobile for a year. After recovery, I aimed to join a team and recently did so with Eric Marcus’s team at More Chicago Homes, focusing on excellent service to our clients.

    I enjoy working with people and seeing their satisfaction when they buy a home or lease an apartment. My clients know that I negotiate aggressively and advocate for them, often forming lasting friendships. As an administrator at the Chicago Public Schools Central Office, I negotiated prices, building strong negotiating skills that I now use in real estate.

    In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family. I am married and have twins, a boy and a girl, who are now twenty-three years old. I also like meeting friends for lunch or dinner, going to the movies, watching true crime stories, and dancing.

    Nací en Cuba y me mudé a España para cursar la secundaria. Después, me mudé a Chicago, Illinois, donde estudié inglés en la Universidad Northeastern Illinois y obtuve una licenciatura en Idiomas Extranjeros. También obtuve dos maestrías —una en Literatura Española de la Universidad Roosevelt y otra en Administración Escolar de la Universidad Loyola— y un Doctorado en Liderazgo Educativo de la Universidad DePaul. He trabajado en las Escuelas Públicas de Chicago durante más de 38 años como educadora, administradora, directora y fundadora de la Escuela Secundaria de Idiomas Mundiales en “Greater Lawndale Campus”.

    Tras jubilarme, me dediqué a mi pasión por los bienes raíces como agente independiente, ayudando a clientes a comprar, invertir y alquilar propiedades. Un accidente que me fracturó el tobillo me mantuvo inmóvil durante un año. Tras recuperarme, me propuse unirme a un equipo
    y recientemente lo hice con el equipo de Eric Marcus en “More Chicago Homes”, donde nos centramos en brindar un servicio excelente a nuestros clientes.

    Disfruto trabajando con la gente y viendo su satisfacción cuando compran una casa o alquilan un apartamento. Mis clientes saben que negocio con agresividad y los defiendo, forjando a menudo amistades duraderas. Como administradora en la Oficina Central de las Escuelas Públicas de Chicago, negocié precios, desarrollando sólidas habilidades de negociación que ahora utilizo en el sector inmobiliario.

    En mi tiempo libre, disfruto pasar tiempo con mi familia. Estoy casada y tengo gemelos, un niño y una niña, que ya tienen veintitrés años. También me gusta salir con amigos para comer o cenar, ir al cine, ver historias de crímenes reales y bailar.
