Demers brings 18 years of experience with the company and continues the legacy established by her mother and founder, Josette Callol. After earning a BFA in Design from Concordia University, Demers began her career in visual merchandising with Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters before joining Specialty Tile in 2007 to redesign the company's showrooms.

Her career trajectory at Specialty Tile includes serving as marketing director from 2010 and as Chief Marketing and Operating Officer since 2021, where she has focused on streamlining company operations. Demers maintains an active presence in the tile industry through her involvement with the Tile Council of North America and the Ceramic Tile Distributors Association, as well as her regular appearances on panels discussing design and product trends.

Alongside Demers' promotion, the company has elevated TJ Garry to Chief Sales Officer. Garry joined Specialty Tile in 2002 in showroom sales, following his father's career path in the flooring industry. Armed with a B.S. in marine geology from Stockton University, he established the company's first marketing department and gained additional technical expertise during a two-year stint at Laticrete before transitioning to commercial sales in 2008. He was promoted to vice president of sales in 2021.
