Hajin is a co-founder of NZPMC. He currently works full-time at Atlassian as a backend software engineer, but is quite passionate about this initiative that he still involves himself in it. Hajin enjoys playing pop/classical piano, running, and tramping in his spare time. Hajin has a great interest in education, and hopes that students would draw inspiration and motivations via NZPMC, through competitions and workshops. 

Hyunbin is an Engineering Science graduate from The University of Auckland now working as a Data Engineer. He enjoys contemplating and solving business problems with technology. He is motivated to make NZPMC accessible and enjoyable to every single high school student in New Zealand.

Amaya is a first-year student at the University of Sydney, immersing herself in the ever-changing realms of physics and computer science. Committed to promoting the excitement and accessibility of STEM across New Zealand, she actively forges meaningful relationships with sponsors so that students who share her passion for physics can continue to participate in the NZPMC. In her spare time, Amaya enjoys playing board games, listening to science podcasts, singing, and spending time with friends! 

Magee is a second year student at the University of Auckland, studying a Bachelor of Science in Data Science. He is a member of the Business team, where the team cooperates to provide service for NZPMC. Outside of school, Magee is passionate about exploring nature, hiking and travelling. 

George is a first-year PhD student in Risk and Actuarial Studies at the University of New South Wales. He helps organise various knickknacks in the Business Team. He also loves making up stuff  (in both literal senses), like building PC’s or keyboards, or telling stories through composing music or playing D&D.

Trisan is an Engineering Science student at the University of Auckland with a particular knack for the physical sciences and math. With NZPMC, Trisan focuses on promoting and marketing - everything from poster making to email sending. After graduating, he intends to pursue further education and work in the aerospace industry. He's inclined to pass his time by listening to music, reading, and spending time with those around him.

Seivin enjoys mathematics and science, but had to pick something, so for now she is studying Biomedical Science at the University of Auckland. Taking part in academic competitions at school was a fun way for her to expand her knowledge. As part of the NZPMC Business Team, she is determined to promote STEM to secondary students across New Zealand. 

Hannah is a primary school teacher with a Bachelor of Education (Primary Teaching). Outside of work, she enjoys practicing pilates, solving jigsaw puzzles, and spending quality time with friends and family. She is deeply committed to supporting and challenging secondary students in their educational journey through NZPMC. 

Wilco is an Applied Physics student at the University of Auckland, juggling his time between working at Stardome and researching in the university's quantum optics labs. He’s passionate about physics, loves both dogs and cats (especially the smooth ones), and spends a lot of his free time playing ultimate frisbee—where he essentially becomes a dog chasing a piece of plastic for hours. You’ll recognize his questions when you see them—they’re often quirky, weird, and guaranteed to make you think.  

Oliver Dai is a first year undergraduate student taking the Natural Science Tripos at the University of Cambridge, with the dream of becoming a Materials Scientist. With the NZPMC he aims for and is currently working hard to realise New Zealand’s participation in the International Physics Olympiad. In his spare time, he likes to read about/watch quantum mechanics, Confucian philosophy, geography, energy engineering and Chinese history. And occasionally listen to a bit of Chinese Opera. And is a staunch supporter of the King’s Gambit and fan of Xu Xin. 

I am a second year university student at the University of New South Wales. I am doing a double degree in software engineering and mathematics. Throughout high school, my favourite subjects by far were physics and mathematics. I have had a fun experience competing in NZPMC in 2021, accompanied with decent success. My goals for NZPMC can be summed up by trying to add questions that are high quality and non-ambiguous, interesting, and fun to solve. In my spare time I enjoy going for jogs, playing piano, browsing the internet, and in general anything that’s relaxing.

I'm James, an undergraduate student studying Natural Sciences at the University of Cambridge. I enjoyed participating in the NZPMC throughout high school and joined at the end of 2022 to provide this opportunity to all NZ students interested in physics and mathematics. Outside of studying, I love playing table tennis and browsing the web for science videos.

I'm Luke, originally from Christchurch, but now an undergraduate student in Boston studying mathematics and physics at Harvard University. I joined the NZPMC at the end of 2022 with the goal of delivering enriching experiences for mathematically and physically minded kiwi students. When I get time, I enjoy playing competitive video games, watching football and cycling. 

Ibrahim is a high schooler beginning his engineering/science journey in 2023. Being a certified anti-bio-man he hopes to spread the good word of physics and mathematics to the good students of New Zealand (and maybe Australia?? or EARTH [NZPMC global takeover?!?!?]). May still leave you cowering in fear with his sadistic questions, stay tuned. Hobbies are on a rotation, you would never guess what he’s up to at any point (but napping and procrastinating is a safe bet). 

Wilco is a Year 13 student and is particularly fond of both mathematics and physics. He’s looking to study a Bachelor of Advanced Science in Applied Physics (Space Systems) at the University of Auckland. As for hobbies, he enjoys a wide range of activities from ultimate frisbee, biking to look at other people’s dogs, and buying a mountain of pens he’ll never use. His role for NZPMC is to produce questions which will make other students cry. He is also cooler than Trisan. 

Heya! 👋 I’m a fourth year student at UoA specialising in Software Engineering. This is my second year with the tech team maintaining the NZPMC registration platform (focusing mainly on the UI), but I was on the old logistics team in the past, organising events and shipping certs. I love Vocaloid (Inabakumori anyone?) and cute indies like Undertale and Celeste. If you've got any suggestions or just wanna chat, ping me @Oculux on the Discord :) 

I'm Hosea, a Penultimate Software Engineering student at the University of Auckland. In my free time, I like to play football, tennis and hanging out with my friends. 

I am a computer science graduate from the University of Auckland. I am currently working as an IT support at an IT company. I really love running, gym and good food. Sidenote: The food at NZPMC is great! 

I'm Harry, a Penultimate CS student at the University of Auckland. In my free time, I like powerlifting and hanging out with my friends.
