About Ronan

What was your experience of Further/Higher education like?

I loved my time inÌýuniÌýbut that wasn't because it was easy. It was a whirlwind time of anxieties and pressures. I loved it because I got really involved inÌýuniÌýlife (e.g. socs) and was surrounded by good people.Ìý

What do you like most about your work as a Student Adviser?

Supporting struggling students to get back on track.

What's a surprising or interesting fact about yourself?

Hmm... I once broke curfew during a coup in Lesotho (southern Africa) to move 40 kids across town in 2 vans. We weren't shot.
