Guests
Mary Allen Lindemann
Somehow, Mary Allen Lindemann knew that a B.A. in poetry from Brown University would lead to an interesting and meaningful career. Before life as Coffee By Design’s owner and Community Builder, Mary Allen spent ten years working in advertising, retail and wholesale clothing companies, and marketing.
Today, Mary Allen is dedicated to ensuring that Coffee By Design stays true to its Maine roots and maintains its commitment to giving back to the local and international communities to which Coffee By Design is intimately connected. Part of her job is to make sure the company continues to be a “good corporate citizen” while making social change happen in a unique and meaningful way. Mary Allen is proud to work with her partner and husband, Alan, and loves being Mom to Alina. She hopes that the work she does on a daily basis at Coffee By Design and in the community makes a difference now and in the years to come.
