==Career==
== Personal life ==
Mallory was born on June 2, 1987, in [[Oakland, California]].<ref name=ISU0910/> After attending [[Santa Clara University]],<ref name=idint2/> she transferred to the [[University of Michigan]], where she studied [[neuroscience]].<ref name=NYT100127/>
Mallory has competed as a [[single skating|single skater]] on the sectional level in the United States. Between 2003 and 2007, she competed in ice dancing with [[Brent Holdburg]] for the United States. They won the silver medal at the [[2005 Golden Spin of Zagreb]]<ref>[http://www.isufs.org/events/fsevent00008657.htm 2005 Golden Spin of Zagreb results]</ref>.

== Career ==
=== Early career ===
Early in her career, Mallory competed as a [[single skater]] on the sectional level in the United States. By 2003, she was competing in ice dancing with [[Brent Holdburg]] for the United States.<ref name=malhol/> They won the silver medal at the [[2005 Golden Spin of Zagreb]].<ref>[http://www.isufs.org/events/fsevent00008657.htm 2005 Golden Spin of Zagreb results] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081120181653/http://www.isufs.org/events/fsevent00008657.htm |date=2008-11-20 }}</ref> After their partnership ended in 2007, Mallory skated briefly with [[Maxim Zavozin]].<ref name=idint2/>

=== Partnership with Rand ===
Coaches [[Igor Shpilband]] and [[Marina Zueva]] suggested that Mallory try out with Estonian ice dancer [[Kristjan Rand]].<ref name=idint2/> She began competing with Rand for [[Estonia]] in the 2008–2009 season. They qualified to the free dance at both of their [[ISU Figure Skating Championships|ISU Championships]] assignments, finishing 14th at the [[2009 European Figure Skating Championships|2009 European Championships]] in [[Helsinki]], Finland, and 20th at the [[2009 World Figure Skating Championships|2009 World Championships]] in [[Los Angeles, California]].

Early the following season, Mallory/Rand placed 9th at the [[2009 Nebelhorn Trophy]], giving Estonia a spot in the ice dancing event at the [[Figure skating at the 2010 Winter Olympics|2010 Winter Olympics]] in [[Vancouver]]. They placed 8th at their sole [[ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating|Grand Prix]] assignment, the [[2009 Skate America]]. They did not compete in Canada because the Olympics, unlike other competitions, required both partners to be citizens of the country they were representing and Estonia did not allow dual nationality, meaning that Mallory would have to renounce her U.S. citizenship. She said, "we just realized it was too much of a sacrifice for one competition."<ref name=NYT100127/> Estonia's spot at the Olympics was used by Rand's brother and his partner. Mallory/Rand placed 13th at the [[2010 European Figure Skating Championships|2010 European Championships]] in [[Tallinn]], Estonia, and 17th at the [[2010 World Figure Skating Championships|2010 World Championships]] in [[Turin]], Italy.

The two missed the 2010–2011 season due to Rand's compulsory one-year military service and both skaters' plans to finish college.<ref name=military/> They did not return to competition.

Caitlin Mallory (born June 2, 1987) is an American former ice dancer. She is the 2005 Golden Spin of Zagreb silver medalist with Brent Holdburg. In 2008, she began appearing internationally for Estonia with Kristjan Rand. They competed in the final segment at four ISU Championships.

Personal life[edit]

Mallory was born on June 2, 1987, in Oakland, California.[1] After attending Santa Clara University,[2] she transferred to the University of Michigan, where she studied neuroscience.[3]

Career[edit]

Early career[edit]

Early in her career, Mallory competed as a single skater on the sectional level in the United States. By 2003, she was competing in ice dancing with Brent Holdburg for the United States.[4] They won the silver medal at the 2005 Golden Spin of Zagreb.[5] After their partnership ended in 2007, Mallory skated briefly with Maxim Zavozin.[2]

Partnership with Rand[edit]

Coaches Igor Shpilband and Marina Zueva suggested that Mallory try out with Estonian ice dancer Kristjan Rand.[2] She began competing with Rand for Estonia in the 2008–2009 season. They qualified to the free dance at both of their ISU Championships assignments, finishing 14th at the 2009 European Championships in Helsinki, Finland, and 20th at the 2009 World Championships in Los Angeles, California.

Early the following season, Mallory/Rand placed 9th at the 2009 Nebelhorn Trophy, giving Estonia a spot in the ice dancing event at the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver. They placed 8th at their sole Grand Prix assignment, the 2009 Skate America. They did not compete in Canada because the Olympics, unlike other competitions, required both partners to be citizens of the country they were representing and Estonia did not allow dual nationality, meaning that Mallory would have to renounce her U.S. citizenship. She said, "we just realized it was too much of a sacrifice for one competition."[3] Estonia's spot at the Olympics was used by Rand's brother and his partner. Mallory/Rand placed 13th at the 2010 European Championships in Tallinn, Estonia, and 17th at the 2010 World Championships in Turin, Italy.

The two missed the 2010–2011 season due to Rand's compulsory one-year military service and both skaters' plans to finish college.[6] They did not return to competition.
