Joanne has been a Sports Journalist for nearly twenty years and began her journalism career while still in DCU covering weekend sport on FM104. In 2001, she joined TV3 where she produced news bulletins and presented the Sports Tonight show. After seven years in TV3, Joanne moved to RTÉ in 2007 where she has worked across a variety of sports and programmes on both TV and radio, including Against the Head, the rugby magazine show.
