Joanne Mayland

Technologist

Joanne joined ACA as a graduate Architectural Technologist in July 2018 after graduating for a second time.

Joanne was the first person to join ACA’s Graduate programme, which is led by Senior Technician David Macfarlane & Allan Corfield. The 2-year in-house training programme gives recent graduates an opportunity to gain vital, on the job experience.
 
She originally graduated in 1991 with a B.Ed. in Primary Education and worked in several schools in Scotland and England until 1997, whereupon she took an extended career break to raise her 3 children. The various moves were associated with her husband’s employment, which also led them to spending 4 enjoyable and interesting years in Calgary, Canada. During this time, she developed an interest in interior design and, subsequently, architecture.
 
On her return to Scotland, she commenced studying a B.Sc. in Architectural Technology at Edinburgh Napier University, in preparation for returning to employment once her children left home. She is now enjoying her new career in the area of building and architecture and spends her spare time serving as Elder in her local church, playing trumpet in Linlithgow Reed Band, attending book club and sewing bee, travelling and so much more!
