Dr. Andi worked as a technician before passing the ECFVG program and became licensed in the Unites States in 2013. During her year of clinical training at Louisiana State University, she was exposed to many specialty areas that she loves and decided to apply for an internship. After one year of internship at Veterinary Specialty Hospital, which brought her to San Diego, she realized general medicine gave her the opportunities of dive into all the fields she is passionate about and building relationships with the pet and the owners really made her happy about being a vet. With the fermentation of the sunshine and Pacific Ocean, it didn't take long for her to fall in love with SoCal. She soon became a veterinarian at a small but busy animal hospital in Encinitas for two years. She joined the VCA Mission Animal and Bird Hospital team in the end of 2016.

Dr. Andi loves food, but is a terrible cook that has been proven by multiple attempts. In her spare time, she enjoys exploring new areas, trying different restaurants, beach walks, scenery hikes, Pilates, non-strenuous outdoor activities, and everything the nature has to offer. Puppy eyes, kitty biscuits, traveling, and good food enrich her soul. She is fluent in English, Mandarin, and Taiwanese.
