She is also the founder of a groundbreaking genetic software program, MyHappyGenes, where DNA reports are generated to help individuals find lifestyle and supplemental answers for medical and mental health challenges including depression, anxiety & chronic fatigue syndrome. 
Dr. Dunn was drawn to find solutions for herself and some patients who did not respond to any conventional interventions or medications.  “It felt like I was missing a piece of the health puzzle.”  A deep dive into biochemistry and genetics. She describes her own experience as one where she finally learned what “happy can feel like.”
