Viviane Molletta
Viviane Molletta is excited to represent the University of Fribourg in the 32nd Willem C. Vis Moot, also known as the "Olympic Games for Law Students".
As a second-year law student, Viviane is eager to delve into the complexities of international arbitration and commercial law. Her diverse linguistic skills - English, French, Italian, Romanian, Spanish, and some German - enable her to approach legal challenges from various perspectives.
She views the Vis Moot as a valuable opportunity to apply her academic knowledge in a practical setting, refine her legal reasoning, and collaborate with a dedicated team.
Viviane is excited about the intellectual challenges. From complex legal cases to high-level legal reasoning, this competition pushes her to think critically and creatively.
Tim Hogg
Meet Tim Hogg, one of our dedicated participants in the 32nd Willem C. Vis Moot Court!
Now in his third year of a Bachelor's degree in Law at the University of Fribourg, Tim’s passion for law comes from its power to shape societies and create justice.
He’s particularly interested in how international law and arbitration can address the challenges of a globalized world. For Tim, law is about applying principles to solve real-world issues, not just studying theory.
Tim constantly seeks to develop his legal reasoning and advocacy skills. He’s excited to compete alongside his teammates, proudly representing the faculty of law of the Université de Fribourg - Universität Freiburg.
Selda Barcedogmus
Selda Barcedogmus is a second-year law student at the University of Fribourg. She enjoys taking on new challenges, whether it is in her studies or her hobbies, like hiking. She loves the journey, even when it is getting tough and requires endurance, because reaching the summit always brings a sense of accomplishment that makes every effort worthwhile.
With a strong commitment to the field of law and a specific interest in international commercial arbitration, Selda is equally excited about connecting with new people and learning something new every day. If she is not studying in the law library of Fribourg, you'll find her on a running track or on the Swiss mountains!
Fluent in French, German, English, Kurdish, and Turkish, she appreciates the diverse perspectives that Vis Moot competition offers.
