“In this country, we've never really had a real place where every renter and every landlord can come together and every landlord can find their renters that they need for their properties and vice versa…on that on the renter side, they can find their next home”.
“Really focus on understanding who you are, what drives you, and you know what you need in order to make yourself happy, and then build a career that helps you achieve those things”.
“One of the things about the whole start-up experience is the number of people who are willing to help is extraordinary. And there's great guidance and insight out there from people who are willing to lend their time, their thinking”.
