She has authored several studies on evolutionary genetics and biology including "Species-specific impacts of grazing amphipods in an eelgrass-bed community,"[3] which contributed to understanding the root causes of deterioration of the Chesapeake Bay. Dr. Annie is certified in veterinary acupuncture[4] and practices integrative medicine on animals.[5][6] In 2012, she conducted an unpublished study using an animal's own blood to harvest iPSCs (induced pluripotent stem cells) to treat cancer. Dr. Annie has appeared on The Pet Collective and in other various media as an expert on animal health issues[7][8][9][10] and the veterinary industry.[11]

She received her D.V.M. degree from the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine where she served as president of the school’s chapter of the American Veterinary Medical Association, and her CVA from the Chi Institute of Chinese Medicine. She has been licensed to practice veterinary medicine in California, New York, Maryland and Pennsylvania.
The Animal Wellness Foundation[edit]
The Animal Wellness Foundation is a 501(c)3 Non-Profit Organization, founded by Dr. Annie, which focuses on strengthening the human-animal bond. One core focus of the foundation is to provide a "last resort" when a low-income family or a kill-shelter is forced to euthanize an otherwise adoptable animal. The Animal Wellness Foundation has rescued hundreds of pets from kill-shelters in and around Los Angeles successfully placing them in "forever homes" across the country.[12][13]
The Animal Wellness Foundation works with many other organizations to promote animal welfare including American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, Humane Society of the United States, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, Beagle Freedom Project, Lu Parker Project, Much Love, Take Me Home, and Kitten Rescue.
In 2014, the Animal Wellness Foundation partnered with Explore, a multimedia subsidiary of the Annenberg Foundation, that documents leaders around the world who have devoted their lives to extraordinary causes. One aspect of the partnership is a live stream of Animal Wellness Foundation animals available for adoption and educational videos hosted by Dr. Annie and broadcast on Explore's website.[14]
