The team behind whatever magazine

Meet the Whatever team!

Built by two passionate girls driven by a love for all things music, skating, and DIY. Originating from the North Texas area, Kar Mercado & Hannah Fulkerson created Whatever Magazine on a rampant whim after bonding over all the same punk bands. Both members of the team set out to create a space that would allow for artists from all over to showcase their media with no restrictions. Inclusivity and passion are our driving purpose for what we do and we hope to bring down more barriers across the music/skate/art scene for everyone!
