EARLY LIFE
NAME, BIRTHDAY, HOMETOWN
The heartthrob lawyer of Cebu was born Julius Oliver Möller on August 16, 1991.
Growing up in Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu, where he still resides, Oliver is a Leo who is set to turn 33 years old this year.
OLIVER’S FAMILY
Oliver is born to an interracial couple: Filipina businesswoman Joy Möller, and retired German professor of Marine Biology, Heino Möller.
The couple just celebrated 35 years of togetherness on December 12, 2023.
Oliver is part of a close-knit family of five, along with his sisters Yasmine Möller Morris and the youngest sibling, Stella Möller Anderson.
In each of their social media profiles, the family is seen celebrating most occasions, holidays, and milestones together, even with Oliver’s sisters having families of their own already.
EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND
Oliver is a proud alum of University of San Carlos, one of the esteemed universities in Cebu.
From there, he was able to earn two bachelor’s degrees in political science and government and law, respectively.
BACHELOR OF ARTS, MAJOR IN POLITICAL SCIENCE AND GOVERNMENT
For the 50th Founding Anniversary of University of San Carlos – Department of Political Science on December 11, 2020, the school organization was able to catch up with Oliver to ask him about how his background in the course helped him reach his career goals.
Oliver said at the time, “My political science education opened my eyes to greater society. Prior to 2008, I never even pondered on issues surrounding topics, such as elections, power struggles, economies, and the like.
“My professors helped me realize the bigger picture. I was taught the importance of seeing how the world worked, and more significantly, how important I and every other individual was to how it worked.
“At present, my education has helped shaped me to be the person I am today: someone who is practical and idealistic at the same time.
“Someone who understands that: things change; some things can change; some things should change; and that I as an individual can play a part in that decision.”
BACHELOR OF LAWS
Driven by his realizations from studying political science, it was only a matter of time before Oliver decided to undertake a degree in law in the same universiy.
