As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Ms. Malone's professional journey is distinguished by her commitment to public service, policy innovation and veteran advocacy. In 2024, she began her tenure at Schneider Electric as a federal policy manager, where she manages government procurement and workforce policy. Her responsibilities include translating federal and state-level policies for business units, identifying opportunities and challenges within legislative frameworks, and advising policy leaders and congressional members on the impacts of proposed legislation.

Ms. Malone engages with industry stakeholders to address administration priorities such the nation's energy emergency, advocates for new legislation to facilitate energy resilience projects, and interprets new federal workforce policies. She has played a pivotal role in making Schneider Electric more veteran-friendly by establishing a "Hiring Our Heroes" committee, recruiting SkillBridge fellows and employees through a volunteer group, and fostering an inclusive workplace culture.

Prior to her current position, Ms. Malone served as a strategic intelligence and operations fellow at Schneider Electric in 2024. During this period, she leveraged her extensive military background to bridge the gap between defense sector expertise and corporate strategy.

Ms. Malone's career is deeply rooted in her 21 years of service as an Army intelligence officer, where she operated at tactical, operational and strategic levels and provided strategic recommendations to senior military leaders, including four-star generals, that directly influenced key policies and operations. Her military tenure included two tours in Iraq and numerous leadership roles across the United States during non-deployment periods and culminated at the rank of lieutenant colonel. From 2021 to 2024, she was a deputy director at a Department of Defense (DoD) agency, overseeing critical intelligence operations that informed high-level decision-making.

Likewise, between 2020 and 2021, Ms. Malone was a DoD agency executive fellow, focusing on integrating intelligence insights into operational planning. From 2017 to 2020, she served as a deputy and then chief of operations, managing complex projects that required coordination across multiple agencies and stakeholders. Her earlier assignments included deputy director from 2016 to 2017, chief of operations from 2014 to 2016, executive officer in 2014, deputy director from 2013 to 2014, and associate dean of students from 2011 to 2013. As a senior intelligence officer for division operations from 2008 to 2011, she led teams responsible for gathering and analyzing actionable intelligence.

Following her military service, Ms. Malone participated in a SkillBridge Fellowship, a Department of Defense program designed to help service members explore civilian career opportunities while still on active duty. Through the Chamber of Commerce Foundation's "Hiring Our Heroes" corporate fellowship program, she gained valuable experience transitioning into the private sector.

Ms. Malone's academic credentials have been instrumental in shaping her leadership approach and policy expertise. She expects to complete a Doctorate of Business Administration in nonprofit leadership and management from Liberty University in 2026. She also holds a Master of Business Administration and a Master of Science in management from University of Maryland Global Campus, and a Bachelor of Arts in environmental studies from University of California Santa Barbara. Additionally, she completed an executive certificate in business administration and management at Liberty University in 2022.

Ms. Malone attributes her success to clearly articulating her goals and building strong relationships with sponsors, mentors and advisors who have supported her throughout her career. Motivated by the events of September 11, 2001, she chose to commission in the military, a decision that set the foundation for her lifelong dedication to service.

Ms. Malone is actively involved in civic organizations and community initiatives. She has served as the president of the executive board for The Fort Meade Officers' Spouses' Club DBA Maryland Military and Civilian Spouses' Club since 2022, a role she previously held from 2019 to 2020, and has contributed as a scout leader with Scouts BSA. From 2021 to 2024, she co-led a networking committee for her organization's Women's Employee Resource Group.

Ms. Malone's exemplary service has been recognized with several prestigious awards, including the Bronze Star, two Defense Meritorious Service Medals and two Meritorious Service Medals. Although she has experienced many career highlights, she is especially proud of her ongoing work on the VET Act of 2025, a bipartisan initiative developed with electrical associations representing contractors, distributors and manufacturers, which aims to provide energy companies with incentives and grants for hiring veterans and military spouses.

Ms. Malone enjoys advanced open water scuba diving outside her professional commitments. She is dedicated to supporting her family and remains focused on advancing initiatives that improve support for military veterans and spouses. Her ongoing goal is to solidify career paths for transitioning service members while excelling as a policy advisor and manager at Schneider Electric.
