ALLIE DEMARS
Wife, Mom of twins, follower of Jesus and lover of music Likes: Tinkering with new apps, working out, talking with my hands, baking sourdough and spending time with family and friends Dislikes: Watered down coffee, dog hair on my clothes, mix matched colors and onions Allie was born on the east coast and moved multiple times during her childhood, as her parents were active-duty Air Force. After high school Allie had the opportunity to move to Germany to pursue a career as a civilian, contracted with the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA). She currently holds a degree in Criminal Justice. During her time overseas, Allie traveled to 19 countries. Including her two favorites, Greece and Italy. Allie relocated from Germany to Central Oregon and began working in law enforcement as a deputy sheriff. During her time serving the community, she developed a passion working with and advocating for those in mental crisis. Allie pursued this interest which led to becoming a certified crisis intervention specialist and de-escalation instructor, while working along-side the local crisis response team. After meeting her husband and starting a family, Allie left law enforcement to spend time with her babies. Her family relocated to the Salem area which allowed her to pursue a new path in marketing and social media management for a local family resource guide. Allie is looking forward to spreading the word about Salem Angels! |
