Official Blog of the Tophatter Auction House
Okay, okay, we’re taking a break from all of the Y chromosomes. (Visit: Les, the Code Monkey & Dan the Man.) What about the women who frequent the Tophatter office? Fear not…Jacq, the Scheduling Queen is here!
Psst…when thanked for filling out this survey, she so kindly responded: “No, thank YOU, Megan”. :)

- Name: Jacqueline or ‘Jacq’ around the office.
- Title: Wannabe Programmer / Auction Ops / Scheduling Queen
- Do you have any pets? I have a fluffy “Cavachon” (part King Charles Cavalier & part Bichon Frise) mutt named Riley. She’s a scruffy little rascal, so everyone assumes she’s a boy. The unisex name probably isn’t helping either…
- Who is your favorite Tophatter auctioneer & why? My heart belongs to Bartholomew. I love dashing old men with gray hair.
- If you were a superhero, what would your superpower be? I wish I could pause time since there’s never enough time in a day!
- What are your top 3 favorite non-Tophatter blogs/sites/apps? Oh, toughie. I regularly visit: Design Sponge, Refinery 29 & Apartment Therapy.
- When you do have spare time, what are your hobbies? I enjoy spending time with my family, particularly my niece and 2 nephews. Aside from that, I attend a fair amount of concerts.
- What is your dream vacation? I have a soft spot for lazy, beach vacations and backpacking in exotic, international destinations.
- Who is your favorite guilty pleasure musician/band? Man… I feel like I’m copying Dan, but I’d love a chance to see Garth Brooks live.
- Could you go an entire week without phones, TV and computers? If not, how long until withdrawals set in? Which would you miss the most? Answer: I think I could manage a week without electronics, but it would have to be at a fun-filled location filled with non-technology distractions. If I was stranded alone without any type of entertainment, I’d probably last a few hours — max. I would miss absurd group text messages from my family most of all.
Okie dokes, folks. There you are…the talented & amazing woman behind your auctions. If you have any questions about Jacq, comment here or tweet us at @tophattr.
Happy bidding!
