Personal History

Joanna was initially born on Earth to parents of mix heritage. Her father Peter met her mother Carrie during his diplomatic posting on Betazed as an attaché at the Federation embassy. As a child Joanna was raised mostly on Betazed by her mother while her father travelled back and forth between Earth and Betazed.

Growing up Joanna knew that unlike the majority of Betazoids she was not a full telepath. Like many empaths before her she was trained in the usage of her empathic abilities. It is the study of the ability that led her to choose psychology as her profession.

Initially led by her father Joanna was being persuaded to join the Federation diplomatic corps to follow her father’s footsteps to become a certified diplomat to be posted on one of the many Federation worlds. However with her training in psychology Joanna learned that there were many telepathic races across the Federation who needed healers of the mind. Joanna was torn in choosing either professions and eventually discovered that by joining Star Fleet she would be able to counsel crew members while still developing her diplomatic training through discovery and meeting new species and cultures.

Her first posting was on the Federation Starship Destiny as the Assistant Counsellor. Its mission was to explore an unknown part of space within the far reaches of the Beta quadrant. During its four year mission Joanna came across many new species and came to appreciate the experience within Star Fleet.

Once she returned to Alpha quadrant Joanna learned about a Ship’s Counsellor opening onboard the Starship Drake and her transfer request was accepted.
