Max Schulman is the Communications and Research Coordinator with HIT Strategies. Max is the liaison between the two departments, synthesizing research for both internal and external use, as well as informing research analysts of the media implications of different projects. 

Prior to joining the HIT team, Max gained writing skills in the journalistic world. He served on the Editorial Board of his college newspaper, the Vanderbilt Hustler, for three years. In that role, he ran the Opinion Section, wrote investigative articles, and composed Op-Eds to reflect the views of the Editorial Board.  

Additionally, Max has campaign communications experience. During the 2020 general election, Max was the Deputy Communications Director for the Tennessee Democratic Party. He wrote press statements and conducted the Party’s social media outreach, raising thousands of dollars in donations and mobilizing core constituencies. 

Max is excited to amplify focus groups and surveys that center the experiences of those who are underrepresented in media and government.
