Shan Jiu Rong Anny

Anny introduces herself as a Year 6 student from RI, embodying a curious soul with a passion for exploring life's wonders. As an avid reader and eternal learner, she finds joy from unraveling the mysteries of the world through books, travel, and meaningful conversations. Her fascination with law stems from its profound potential to uphold justice and instigate positive societal change. When not immersed in the verses of Chinese poetry or guiding her Labrador on a fitness journey (he’s on a diet), she can be found enjoying music or simply savoring life's beautiful moments. Carpe diem, she exclaims.

Saksham, known to his friends by the affectionate nickname ‘Sako’, is a J2 student at VJC. He loves what others may consider childish - everything from Pokémon to Mario. As Vice-President of the VJC Debate Club, he quickly realised that 8 minutes was barely enough to cover even the very surface of the issues that plague the world. So, he has chosen to direct his eloquence and speaking abilities towards the legal sector, in the hope of making a positive impact on the world around him.

Ashton is a Y4 Student from RI. While his foray into the legal circuit may differ from his aptitude in the sciences, Ashton joined FLS to learn from the best, and gain exposure to something new. He hopes that FLS will continue to network with more professionals in the industry and for more students who view FLS’ social media pages to develop a love for law that goes deeper than his love for coffee :)

A chronically-sleep deprived student from Raffles Institution, Fiora is grappling the demands of Y6 while trying to carve out time for her social life. Coupled with countless traumatic experiences studying for the three sciences in Secondary School, she had decided to make a 360-degree transformation and is now in Raffles HP instead (still suffering though). Nonetheless, she looks forward to learning more about the legal realms and engage in constructive discourse.
