Tanya Quinn’s first job was at a credit union when she was 19. She seems to have found the right industry for her. Today, Quinn has risen through the ranks for Fidelity Bank, having been chosen for the bank’s professional development program for those showing particular promise.
Quinn joined Fidelity in 2017 to manage its call center, and then supervised the center’s move to a full-service office in Princeton last year. Just after the move, she was promoted to branch manager. Quinn’s client care team – which she spurred to take loan applications over the phone and take advantage of the opportunity to enhance relationships – was recognized with an annual role model award from Fidelity. Her tireless efforts extend beyond her Fidelity branch. She’s a member of the Athol-Orange Rotary Club and has served on the board of the North Quabbin Chamber of Commerce. It’s a lot for a single mother of two young daughters, but she’s tireless there, too, connecting her daughters to their community through events such as Read Across America and Girl Scout activities including Earth Day, placing flags in the cemetery for Memorial Day, and serving food at the Salvation Army in Athol.
