WP candidate Andre Low hopes to rely on the breadth of experience he has gathered across different industries to serve Jalan Kayu residents and Singaporeans.

Referring to labour chief Ng Chee Meng, a former lieutenant-general who is the PAP candidate for Jalan Kayu SMC, he said: "I think I have, in many ways, much more to offer than he does. He comes with his military background. He's been in the labour movement. I offer something different. I worked in the private sector my entire career."

In each of his career paths in law, technology and consulting, he has worked at the largest companies, he said. He started as a disputes lawyer with Drew & Napier, then moved on to the technology sector with Amazon Web Services, before he joined the Boston Consulting Group.

He holds a Bachelor of Laws (First Class Honours) from University College London and a Master of Business Administration from Insead.

The only child of two teachers, he joined WP in 2020 and was appointed secretarial assistant to Sengkang GRC MP Louis Chua immediately after the election.
