Contributor Limelight: Nate Abbott
If you’ve popped in the SLUG office lately you may have noticed a new, moustachioed face around—none other than the visage of Nate Abbott, whom you may have previously recognized as the store manager of the Sandy Graywhale before he made the move to be a Community Development Executive with SLUG Mag. … read more

Contributor Limelight: Madelyn Boudreaux
Our resident Goth aficionado, bred from the wetlands of Louisiana, Madelyn has been on our staff since 2009, reviewing everything dark and dismal that shuffles through the SLUG offices. Don’t let her penchant for doom and gloom fool you, though––she’s also an avid foodie with a soft spot for ethnic cuisine, and her warm descriptions of the food she reviews always have us drooling. … read more
Contributor Limelight: Catie Weimer
Meeting Catie was what we imagine a blind date to be like. Our palms were sweaty and we weren’t quite sure what to say. Luckily, we didn’t fuck it up too much, and she ended up liking us enough to stick around and become our Social Media Coordinator. We like Catie because she loves pizza and blasting anything metal and loud, but we like her for a lot of other reasons, too. … read more
Contributor Limelight: Alex Cragun
There’s dedication, and then there are diehards: Alex Cragun received his degree in Political Science in 2011 after writing for the Daily Utah Chronicle, which has led him to being the Vice President of the Young Democrats of Utah, a Spring Fellow for the Obama Campaign and a manager for the Seegmiller for Congress Campaign in 2012. Cragun practices the type of work ethic SLUG loves, and we were quick to snatch him up in October of 2011 as a copy editor. … read more
Contributor Limelight: Mike Riedel
Mike Riedel recently brought his wealth of beer knowledge to SLUG Magazine as our monthly Beer Columnist. Riedel started his Utah Beer blog (utahbeer.blogspot.com) in 2005, unpaid and on his free time, out of a sense of frustration toward people’s misconceptions of Utah craft beers, as well as the desire to create a community focused on local brews and breweries. … read more

Sean Zimmerman-Wall, or “Z-Dub,” as we sometimes call him, has been writing action sports content for SLUG since 2008, when he covered the Freeskiing World Tour at Snowbird. Since then, he’s written poignant poetry on everything from paragliding to downhill mountain biking—his favorite SLUG assignment so far being a recent recap of the 2012 Red Bull Rampage. … read more
