Danielle Walton

Danielle is a visionary leader and successful change agent. If you have a problem, she can solve it by bringing order to chaos and energy to execution. In 2008, she knew businesses were getting a bad deal from digital marketing agencies, so she co-founded Adept Marketing. Today, it’s one of the fastest-growing, highly-respected agencies in Columbus. Now as COO and co-founder of Upright, she’s eager to elevate and improve public relations.

Prior to running her own agencies, Danielle successfully led change management strategies at Deloitte. Her ability to see the big picture and minute details made her a natural at leading enterprise technology implementations for Fortune 500 companies. At Lifestyle Communities, one of the largest apartment companies in the Midwest, she led marketing initiatives designed to drive sales and leasing for luxury residential properties. That’s where she met Justin, and the pair teamed up to create Adept Marketing. Now with the launch of Upright, the duo is once again creating a better business solution for the betterment of their clients.

Danielle is a proud graduate of Miami University, Entrepreneur’s Organization board member and devoted Peloton cyclist.
