Rebecca Maloney is an accomplished leader and outdoor enthusiast who brings passion, energy, and heart to everything she does. Originally from Vail, Colorado, Rebecca made the move to Bend, Oregon, 3½ years ago to embrace a new chapter filled with adventure, community, and personal growth. With a strong background in technology and leadership, she has built a career around driving innovation while always staying grounded in her core values of connection and compassion. Outside of her professional accomplishments, Rebecca is an avid ultra runner, constantly pushing herself through endurance challenges that fuel both her mind and spirit. She also loves spending time outdoors skiing, golfing, and paddleboarding, making the most of Central Oregon’s natural beauty. Her greatest joys come from the time she spends with her partner Kurtis and their two beloved dogs, Mazy and Hunter and her foster horses Devon and Mocha, who are truly like her children. Rebecca has a deep passion for children’s programs and giving back to her community. She proudly serves on the Board of Directors and acts as Volunteer Coordinator for Equine Outreach, a nonprofit dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating horses in need. Through this work, she combines her love for animals with her desire to make a meaningful difference. Rebecca’s journey, from the mountains of Vail to the vibrant community of Bend, is a reflection of her belief in growth, resilience, and living life to the fullest. Whether on the trail, at the lake, or volunteering, she is always moving forward with purpose and heart.
