Dean DeSantis grew up in Salem, Oregon with a Catholic upbringing and education. After graduating from the University of Oregon he spent the next six years working and traveling abroad in over 20 countries.

This respect for a diversity of beliefs and world views has made Unitarian Universalism, and Atkinson Memorial Church, a perfect fit for him. He spends his days managing his family's landscape contracting business. Dean, his wife Jill, and their children Ella and Jalen began attending Atkinson Memorial Church in 2002.
