Maya Sulkin

I’M a reporter and host for The Free Press, where I cover higher education, Gen Z, and politics. MY reporting has taken ME from small towns in Ohio to Tel Aviv and Silicon Valley. Previously, I served as the company’s Chief of Staff—a job I landed after sending a cold email from MY college dorm room AT COLUMBIA.

SPEAKING

I TRAVEL ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND SPEAK TO LIVE AUDIENCES ABOUT THE STORIES THAT SHAPED MY CAREER: THE IDEOLOGICAL CAPTURE ON UNIVERSITY CAMPUSES, GROWING ANTISEMITISM ON THE LEFT AND RIGHT, AND WHY YOUNG PEOPLE ARE SO DRAWN TO THE ANTI-ISRAEL MOVEMENT. I SPEAK ABOUT WHAT I SAW ON COLUMBIA’S CAMPUS, AND WHY I CHOSE TO GRADUATE EARLY AND JOIN THE FREE PRESS.

I ALSO SPEAK ABOUT HOW AI IS EFFECTING GEN Z: OUR EDUCATION, RELATIONSHIPS, ECONOMIC INSTABILITY, AND SENSE OF PURPOSE.
