Hi! I’m Max Dolling. I am a junior at Clemson majoring in Management with a minor in Brand Communications. This combination has given me a foundation in both practical business operations and the creative, strategic side of marketing. I’m particularly interested in how brands decide to reach and position themselves with customers, and how those decisions ultimately impact performance. I enjoy analyzing market trends and consumer behavior to develop strategies that drive growth and create competitive advantage. I see myself in a role where I can combine analytical thinking with creativity and a strong understanding of people to deliver meaningful, results-driven outcomes.

Outside of academics, my most profound interest is Clemson Football. My dad (graduated ‘91) has bred me to be a Clemson super-fan since birth, so I never miss a game. I equally enjoy watching on TV from home or being in Death Valley, but nothing is better than being with my dad for a game. Some of my other favorite hobbies include fishing in the Adirondacks for Pike and Bass (personal best pictured below), off-roading in my dad’s Jeep on the dunes in Nantucket, and taking my dog Indy on long walks in the woods.
