    Snigdha Bansal
    Copywriter
    TomTom
    Snigdha is a writer with way too many opinions — especially when it comes to pinkwashing, queerbaiting or companies adopting rainbow logos for Pride. Based in Amsterdam, Netherlands, she currently works with geolocation specialist TomTom as a Creative Copywriter. As a queer journalist of colour, she highlights underrepresented stories about the LGBTQIA+ community, mental health and internet culture (sometimes all at once). From stories about the sober lesbians of TikTok to articles on the importance of maps for the queer community, her work has been featured in global publications including VICE, Refinery29, gal-dem and Business Insider.
