AMA Columbus 2024 Women’s Leadership Panel Speakers
Alice Foeller with SiteInsights
As the founder and CEO of SiteInsight, Alice Foeller blends communications and technical skills
together to help nonprofit organizations and businesses improve their web presence, rank higher in
Google searches, and find new customers. She’s a lifelong learner who graduated from
Northwestern University, completed the Goldman Sachs 10,000 Small Businesses program, and is a
member of the 2023 cohort of the Emerging Developers Accelerator Program.
Foeller also co-founded in 2018 Elevate Northland, a nonprofit co-working and co-warehousing
space to support organizations and disadvantaged entrepreneurs.
For all her marketing and community engagement work, the National Association of Women
Business Owners Columbus named Foeller a 2023 Visionary Award Honoree.
Danielle Walton with Adept Marketing
Danielle Walton leveraged her experiences from Deloitte and Lifestyle Communities and co-founded
Adept Marketing in 2008. She’s quickly grown the company, which is now among the Top 100
Fastest Growing Agencies in the U.S., a member of the Inc 5000, and a repeat member of the
Columbus Fast 50.
In October 2020, Walton and her business partners launched Upright, the first public relations
agency dedicated to maximizing trust: the currency of the next decade. Upright operates a separate
company from Adept with a mission to build trust with anyone who encounters your brand.
Nearly two years after the founding of Upright, Adept Marketing became part of Smith, a privately
held global performance commerce agency. The acquisition gives Adept access to Smith’s user
experience and technology development offerings, including expertise in enterprise platforms- SAP,
Adobe, Salesforce and Sitecore. The combined resources allow for a holistic approach.
Stephanie Cotts with Brandwell Solutions
Stephanie Cotts and longtime collaborator Rob Candor founded Brandwell Solutions in March 2017.
It’s an integrated marketing agency for businesses with complex brand stories. Cotts and her team
communicate compelling stories for clients in insurance, finance, health care, tech, construction,
education and nonprofits.
One of the agency’s biggest success stories is COVID-19 vaccine outreach in summer 2021. Working
with six managed care plans, Brandwell orchestrated a statewide “Vax on the Spot” campaign that
exceeded goals of 900,000 vaccines distributed.
Brandwell Solutions won two 2023 Public Relations Society of America Central Ohio Central Ohio
Chapter awards. The first for its special observations Robertson Construction 25th Anniversary
campaign. While the second was for best use of video for its Buckeye Health Plan – Peyton’s Mission
Moment Video.
