Brian Maloney

The very early days of Maloney's marketing communications career included schlepping a 4'5", 250 pound RAID-branded cockroach robot in order to do his part for global insect control. And while he knows he peaked early, he now can boast knowing more than one should about the lifecycle of a flea. Brian's career path has led him to many exciting and new directions – the agency roster now includes Mercedes-Benz USA, William Grant & Sons' portfolio of brands, GameStop, Brooks Sports and Today.com to name a few. As co-CEO of Maloney & Fox, he has led the 14 year-old agency to nearly 70 national, international and regional marketing awards in categories such as new product launches, rebranding, video production, media relations and creative events and was recently tagged as the "Small PR Agency of the Year 2010" by Bulldog Reporter. While Maloney's warped idea of a vacation is traveling internationally to run marathons of the 26.2-mile kind (15 to date), he also has a steadfast love of doing absolutely nothing when he can and plays a bad (real bad) guitar. With eight siblings (yes, he's Irish), about 16 nieces and nephews (he has lost count), two children and an "identical partner," Maloney is a dedicated family guy who not only knows how to rid a house of ants but can also find a way to have a good time and run with that.
