She was so fascinated by the advances in antiretroviral therapy (ART) and their ability to prolong life and prevent mother-to-child transmission among people living with HIV, she
decided to pursue a career in Pharmacy as well as earn a certification in HIV Testing & Counseling.

Philanthropy
After ten years of experience in the profession of pediatric pharmacy, Dr. Dunn has had several HIV patient experiences that made a huge impact on her life. Due to a lack of comprehensive sex education programs, alarming rates of new HIV diagnosis, and increasing rates of sexually transmitted infections among teenagers and adults in the Orlando Metropolitan Area, she decided to start Let’s Beehive!® Inc. to help close the gap.
Dr. Dunn is a firm believer that ”age-appropriate HIV education is the key to success” in conquering the fight against HIV/AIDS for children and adults. Ultimately, it is her vision with Let’s Beehive!® Inc.
to eradicate HIV/AIDS “using health education as natural medicine.”
For the past three and a half years, she’s offered a collaborative and integrated approach to HIV awareness and education services with her Queen Bee® HIV Prevention Program designed to equip women and girls with the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to make better choices as it relates to their sexual health.
