Tomas Ashe
As the Admissions Advisor for the Sports Therapy and Tour Guiding programmes at Portobello Institute, I support prospective students in exploring the programme best suited to their interests, ambitions and future plans. Having taken a non-traditional route into education myself, I understand the importance of clear, personalised guidance. My aim is to ensure everyone who enquires feels informed, welcomed and confident about taking their next step in education.
