January Person of the Month — Jacqueline Hannah Albert

About this segment: Person of the Month is an initiative by the University of Malaya Law Review which aims to feature a prominent member of the University of Malaya’s Law Faculty towards the end of each month. The purpose of this segment is twofold. Firstly, to give due recognition to the contributions of our student leaders and secondly, so that their achievements might inspire other members of the Faculty towards greater success.

​Jacqueline Hannah Albert, born and raised in Johor Bahru, is currently a final-year student at the Faculty of Law, University of Malaya (UM). Fondly recognised for her trademark smile, most people who have met her would describe Jacqueline as having an uplifting presence. Jacqueline is regarded as the embodiment of an all-rounder, or as one could say, a ‘Jacq’ of all trades. Throughout her years in law school, she has proven herself to be an intellectual powerhouse and a resilient individual who is always ready to take on new challenges. Armed with an array of experiences gained through volunteering, mooting and client consulting, there is more to Jacqueline than meets the eye. Hence, what encapsulates Jacqueline as a person is her remarkable achievements coupled with a desire to pursue enriching experiences and to uplift the less-privileged communities in more ways than one.
