Distinguished Citizen
Dotsie is an Olympian cyclist who won a silver medal at the 2012 London Summer Olympics. She is also a seven-time USA Cycling National Champion and a two-time Pan American Champion. Before becoming a cyclist, Dotsie overcame a difficult hurdle of personal struggles with substance abuse and an eating disorder.
