Born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, Michael started working at Mazda of Bedford after being with the Heinen’s grocery company for 12 years. He chose Mazda of Bedford to follow his passion that he has for cars. Cars were always something he has had a deep appreciation for.

“This new career that I have started has taken a lot time, work and learning, but to now see it all pay off is truly rewarding. Starting something new is always scary but I knew if I worked hard at it, it would pay off.”

Aside from cars, Michael enjoys snowboarding, four wheeling and fishing. He loves spending time with his family and friends which are very important to him. Without them, he wouldn’t be the person he is today. “I feel truly lucky to have such a strong support base in my life.”

Starting this job has given Michael the chance to be able to focus on his goals and he looks forward to accomplishing them. “Starting a new chapter in my life has been very rewarding and I look forward to what the future holds for me.”

Kevin O’Malley was born in Cleveland, Ohio, and grew up in Parma. He went to Valley Forge High School and then after graduation in 2008, attended Tri-C for two years. He continued his academic journey to Kent State University where he majored in Marketing and Computer Science. With a strong background in IT, Kevin works as one of Mazda’s Sales and Leasing Specialists.

His hobbies outside of work include hanging out with family and friends, along with any outdoor activities. He is very competitive and because of that, sports have become a big part of his life. He enjoys working out and staying active, but like anyone else, loves the occasional pizza or hamburger. Kevin loves to travel and has been to places like New York, the Bahamas, Las Vegas, Nashville and many others. His favorite vacation was to Jamaica where he learned about the culture and history of the music and of course, Bob Marley. With his Irish roots, he hopes to one day travel to Ireland to learn more about his ancestors.

“I’ve learned a lot about the Mazda brand since I’ve started working here in September of 2013, as well as how the brand has grown from the driving dynamics to the premium quality you seen in today’s vehicles.” He hopes to one day buy a Miata as he thinks it is one of the most enjoyable cars to drive. With his love for cars and traveling, he would also like to take pilot lessons so he could see how it feels to fly around the country.
