An avid supporter of women in business, Dottie was a co-founder of the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO).

Dottie is a native Texan, with a B.A. in Communications from Baylor University. She currently resides in Fairview, Texas. Although much of her adult life was spent in Washington, D.
