Dorothy Lee "Dotsie" Bausch is an American cyclist, Olympic silver medalist, advocate, speaker, and the executive director of the nonprofit, Switch4Good. She is the founder of two nonprofits.

## Early life

Bausch grew up in Kentucky and graduated from Villanova University with a degree in journalism.

At 26 years old, toward the end of her therapy work, her therapist encouraged her to move her body again, choosing a physical activity that was not attached to a goal of fitness or weight loss. She chose cycling.

## Careers

Bausch was featured in the 2015 documentary Personal Gold: An Underdog Story and the 2017 documentary The Game Changers.

Switch4Good is an athlete-driven nonprofit working toward a dairy-free future. The organization employs athlete stories with scientific research and outreach to help others "live better and do more" by avoiding dairy.
