Tweetable Quotes:

“I think something that we've been overlooking as an industry is, call it the quality of life or quality of social interaction onsite. So, what I'm thinking is I don't know that we don't need to add more human interaction. Now it doesn't need to be W2 labor, and it can be other residents or something” – Luke Leins

 

“If you're not going to be 100% fully invested in something, then why do it right?. If we're not going to have 100% zeal in what you’re doing. Either change it or go do something that you're going to be 100% passionate about. So really living with zeal is something that I've been trying to do and that I hope continues to be a part of my identity.” – Luke Leins
