Some questions we asked Joanna!

What inspired you to get into this field of work?

As a junior I represented Scotland playing squash which took me all round the world. I was fortunate to have national level funding and access to a wealth of support for developing athletes including strength and conditioning, nutrition and sports psychology. The intensity of training meant I was subject to injuries, some of which affected my feet. This is when I first met a Podiatrist who assessed me, understood my condition and my goals maintaining high level sport. They made me orthotics and strapped my ankles which I found fascinating. This then led to some time shadowing practice in their clinics and the rest they say, is history.

How do you keep active?

Variety is key for me. I love a mixture of outdoor and indoor activities. I have been involved in multi day ultra hikes but also enjoy the gym and have been involved in Olympic weight training. Recently I have taken up sport fencing (Foil) which I am really enjoying and will regularly attempt a kickabout of a football with friends.

What do you do outside of work?

When I’m not in work you can find me attending gigs and music festivals up and down the country. I am a keen musician and enjoy being part of the community through my involvement in amateur dramatics.

Being Scottish, I find myself heading north to spend time with family and loved ones when I can too.

Tell us a fun fact about yourself?

I am part way through my helicopter private pilot licence training.
