Dottie was born in Long Island, NY but grew up in Tampa, Florida. Her grandmother and pinup namesake was always her biggest supporter growing up and would tell her stories of her glamorous life in Manhattan as they would play dress up in her rhinestones and furs. This is where Dottie’s love for the vintage and classic lifestyle began. She started modeling in 2012 and really found her passion in the pinup world as it brought her back to such fond memories. In her free time she volunteers for The Bomber Girls and she loves antiquing and going to yard sales.
