Regan Bellinger grew up in rural Glide, Oregon, where she was raised on her family’s cattle ranch and developed a deep appreciation for hard work and the outdoors. She attended Oregon State University, earning a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration.

Regan enjoys spending time outdoors year-round—Whether hiking, kayaking, or exploring new adventures with her family. When not adventuring, she enjoys crocheting and doing crafts with her daughter.

Why I started working at NNCCF:
I’ve always known I wanted to build a career centered around helping others navigate life’s ups and downs. I have found a lasting sense of purpose helping others to feel seen, heard, and held. Motherhood has only deepened my commitment to protecting and supporting kids and their families. Coming from a very small, rural town, the power of community has never been lost on me. I am so excited to help create that same feeling of connection for northern Nevada children and families facing cancer diagnoses.

Ask me about:
My crazy, silly, amazing toddler!

What I think is amazing:
Motherhood! Truly the coolest, most awe-inspiring thing I’ve ever done.

Something quirky about me:
I have a very specific bowl and spoon that I eat ice cream with; no other bowl or spoon will do! Also, I like my coffee at room temperature.

My role model:
All of the incredible women in my life, who have shaped the woman I have become.
