• Bio

  Salem was a weird gawky kid growing up, with even weirder fascinations. Born and raised in an apartment over top of the mortuary her Father owned and ran, Her Father was a Mortician, and her Mother worked for the Police doing crime scene clean up and body removal in coordination with her husband's mortuary. Salem grew up roaming the mortuaries halls, playing amongst coffins and police investigations, and helping her Father with makeup and reconstructions. Her fascination turned into a love for procedure and science, which drove her with singular focus towards forensic science.
  
  She grew from a gawky kid into a beautiful woman over the years, but her goals remained firmly the same. A driven and intelligent girl, she graduated two years early, moved and immediately enrolled in university classes that would eventually lead her, at the age of 19 into a job in a forensic's lab coordinating with police. She worked in the lab for a year and a half, and liked the job, but soon found out her real love was fieldwork. Her precinct allowed her leave to go to the academy and has offered her a job on her return if she chooses to take it.
