Snatch Magazine is in The Athletic

Print media is alive, and women's sports are here to stay!

I'm thrilled to share that Snatch Magazine was featured in The Athletic in an article called “Meet the new women’s sports magazine that wants you to step away from the algorithm” — journalist Rebecca Tauber came to the studio in Queens and wrote about what's actually happening here.

Her piece covers a lot of ground: the origin story (a school project zine about women's weightlifting that I made in 2017), the relaunch in 2024, selling out 300 copies of Issue 1 in three weeks, and Issue 2 landing with 40+ contributors and the stunning oil painting on the cover. It gets into the mail club, the contributors, and why an independent print magazine about women's sports exists right now: without ads, without investors, and without anyone else in charge.

One thing that really stuck with me from the piece was Tauber framing my shelf of out-of-print women's sports magazines — Sports Illustrated Women, Girljock, womenSports — not as a cautionary tale but as an archive. That's exactly how I see it too.
