As a first-time Creative Director, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. I had never seriously laid out an article--let alone an entire magazine! Now, months later, I can confidently say the (literal) blood, sweat, tears, and countless 4 AM nights were well worth it. I am so proud of the MODE team, what we’ve accomplished, and what’s to come. We! Did! It!!
