Mike Dotterer (aka Dot) has over thirty years of experience in sales, marketing and business development and has worked in start-ups and Fortune 100 companies.  He is a member of the Stanford Athletic Hall of Fame and was both an All-American and USA Baseball Team member.  Drafted in the National Football League in 1983, Dot was on the 1984 Los Angeles Super Bowl Team.

In his career at Stanford University (1979-1983) Dot was a .340 hitter, including a high of .386 in 1981 with a record 108 hits.  He won Gold with Team USA in the 1981 World Games and another Gold defeating Cuba in the Intercontinental Cup.  He helped the Cardinal to three NCAA Regionals appearances and two trips to the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska (1982 and 1983).  Dot was inducted into the Stanford Athletics Hall of Fame in 2006 as the only athlete in Stanford University history to letter in both baseball and football for four years. 

Dot was also drafted by the New York Yankees in 1979 and 1983 and by the Oakland Athletics in 1982, but did not sign a professional baseball contract.  After an injury cut short his professional football career, Dot moved to New York to earn his Masters in Public Administration from Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs.  He also spent a year at the London School of Economics studying economic history.  During his tenure in New York City, Dot accepted a position as Vice President for the Business Council for the United Nations where he connected UN Ambassadors with captains of industry and dignitaries including President Jimmy Carter, Coretta Scott King, Ted Sorensen, Armand Hammer, Ted Turner, J. B. Fuqua, Lew Wasserman, Malcolm Forbes, Mayor Andrew Young, and Ross Perot Jr.

After a few years in Europe, Dot moved back to North America to join McCaw Cellular, the company founded by Stanford University graduate, Craig McCaw.  The company was a juggernaut and later merged with AT&T to become AT&T Wireless.  Dot would later leave AT&T to join Nextel and start FreedomCall, Nextel’s first independent agent. 

Fast forward to today, Dot still loves innovations in healthcare, science, athletics, Amazon technology and Blue Origin’s space exploration projects.  He sees OnTheDot as combining those passions in a way that leverages his love of people and networking.
