Joanna Manaves works as the director of planning and materials management at Peacock Foods in Chicago, drawing on over 20 years of accounting experience. In her free time, she enjoys various water sports like swimming, skiing, kayaking, and paddleboarding. Water sports provide full-body exercise and are gentler on joints than land sports, making them suitable for those with arthritis or other bone conditions. They also allow for lighter exercise in a relaxing environment, benefiting those at risk for conditions like diabetes or heart disease.
