Heather Doering, Owner
Heather founded Ace in 2013. She's people passionate and chooses to embrace each day as a new adventure.
When she earned her BA in Psychology from Michigan State, digital marketing didn't exist (yes, she's THAT old!). She's self-taught and incorporates consumer psychology into her work. In addition to being a self-proclaimed LinkedIn guru, she is a coach and NeuroZone® certified.
Heather is an active member of the Plymouth Chamber of Commerce, is on the advisory board of the Workforce Alliance Initiative, chairs the Federal Reserve Bank's Money Smart FemPreneur Summit, and loves living in metro Detroit. She also owns IN3 Network, which provides education and support to women entrepreneurs.
Heather is a mom of 2 amazing young men and an awesome but sometimes pesky dog. She enjoys reading, working out, Saturday mornings at Eastern Market, and spending time with family and friends.
Scott McGlone, VP of Business Development
Scott brings a diverse and well-developed skillset to the Ace team. He earned a degree in Psychology from the University of Michigan, spent many years working in IT, has earned national sales awards, and is a former business owner.
​
Scott is active in the community - he currently serves on the board of the Canton Chamber of Commerce, is a past board member of the Plymouth Chamber of Commerce, and is a charter member of the Workforce Innovation Alliance.
Scott is dad to his cat, Mr. Peepers, loves cruisin' in his '67 Fairlane through the streets of downtown Plymouth, enjoys a good bourbon, and appreciates Saturday mornings at Eastern Market.

​
Stefanie is very passionate about her work and is elated to be working for a company that gives her adequate work-life balance.

Brian Marr, Data Master
Brian is an auditor by day, data master by night. He tracks client success, assembles all of those awesome reports, and keeps us on the straight and narrow. We (especially Heather, who, as a wordsmith and psychologist, is not a fan of numbers) appreciate his attention to detail, consistency, and the addition he makes to the team.
Allison Biss, Digital Marketing & Social Media Expert
