Carrie McCormick, a leader in the Chicago real estate market, has more than 20 years of real estate sales expertise along with an unsurpassed reputation for quality and results-oriented service and support. Carrie has personally sold one billion dollars in real estate and constantly stays on top of sophisticated technology, which has made her a forerunner in the marketing and selling of real estate. She has it down to a science. Her talents and on-target recommendations are always based on facts, reliable market analysis, and her vast knowledge of real estate and the market. Patient yet persistent, she is also highly detail oriented and a very determined negotiator.
McCormick is available to clients 24/7. “I communicate often and educate them on the market,” she says. “My clients and I are a team. It is important that we work together to create a successful outcome.” Selling real estate is about knowing what you are selling and articulating what the value is. Year after year, that focus has led to her placement in the top 1 percent for the Chicago Association of Realtors. She has also earned the association’s Gold and Platinum awards and been named a Top Social Media Contributor. Last year, she started a podcast to share tips and market information with her colleagues and clients. “My job is to provide a perfect real estate experience for my clients. I have built a support system that does just that.”
Knowing that schools are an important factor when buying or selling a home, she partners with schoolsparrow.com and Chicago School GPS to provide additional resources and tools for clients. She also has an extensive social media following, which results in extra online exposure for photos and videos of her listings. Paired with traditional marketing, it’s a winning combination. McCormick and her listings are often featured in various Chicago publications and on HGTV’s House Hunters.

Grant & Eisenhofer P.A.
Lisa Weinstein first became interested in representing children and families in birth injury/obstetrical malpractice matters after having her first child. Now a mother of three young children, she leads the successful birth injury litigation practice at Grant & Eisenhofer P.A. With her leadership and compassion as a female litigator—fighting for justice for families on a daily basis—Lisa has made a name for herself and her practice in both the legal community and in her hometown, Chicago.
Lisa’s passion is fueled by her clients. “The families I work for inspire me. The daily struggles that they overcome and their commitment and love for their children motivates me to work harder every day,” she says.
Lisa’s clients have endured unimaginable trauma and loss, as well as suffering from preventable injuries at birth due to medical malpractice. Her dedication to her families has delivered life-changing awards, totaling over $300 million in verdicts and settlements—funds that these families can use to build better futures and get the help and respite care families so desperately need. “When I see the kids I fought for getting older and thriving, my heart just melts,” Lisa says.

Images Med Spa
Meet the woman behind the Images Med Spa brand.
Lauren Langfield is the face of a modern female boss. She started her journey in the aesthetics world, as the face of the front desk team within Images Med Spa. In just five years, and while under the age of 30, she has grown from that vital part of the practice to president of the company.
It is through her hard work, skills, professionalism, vision, and attention to detail that made this possible. No opportunity or task was not worth Lauren’s time and attention. This has earned her deep respect and loyalty from the entire team she leads today.
Lauren immediately saw the space for the company to grow and the gap in marketing the spa. Realizing the opportunity at scale for this business, she built a brand and marketing department from scratch, became the VP of marketing, and since then has quickly helped grow the business and expand to eight locations across Chicagoland.
Lauren says, “Images Med Spa is already amazing, but we are just now getting started.”
Images Med Spa is rapidly growing and expanding to more locations. But what’s more important to Lauren is the reason why: because it’s a place where patients and staff members want to be. It is her passion to help women succeed and develop to whatever potential they want to strive for. She is the vision of inspiration and potential in a female-dominated industry and company.

A and N Mortgage Services, Inc.
2022 marks 20 successful years in the competitive mortgage industry for Neena Vlamis, Owner and CEO of A and N Mortgage Services. Being a female leader in the mortgage industry has taught Neena several valuable insights. Neena says, “Up until 1975, a woman couldn’t even sign a lease on a car or get a credit card without a male co-signer.” And here she is, with a billion-dollar book of business and a successful mortgage company across thirteen states and growing.
Neena is effervescent and does not dwell on negativity. She says that part of being a successful female business owner is setting yourself up to succeed. She believes that a negative mind will not give you a positive life, so she moves forward when encountering sexism or racism, blatant or microaggressions. “You figure it out. You face a challenge head-on and always come out stronger for it.”
Neena believes that leadership doesn’t stop with her, and she wants to continue to foster more leaders within A and N. A and N works with the motto, ‘With our loans, you’re not alone,’ and the company’s employees take this to heart. A and N is not a company looking to make deals; rather, they are working to build relationships. The company has a fantastic culture and employee camaraderie where everyone is encouraged to contribute, grow, and strengthen their skill sets.
Neena aims to expand A and N’s reach by increasing the company’s state licensing and recruitment practices. Neena adds that the company collaborates with other industry leaders on exciting outreach programs. She said she has loved every minute of the last 20 years and is looking forward to the next!
