"I really wanted to make it a culture in this company where the people that work here loved it. They love the team. They love being in, we have really good camaraderie, and there's a lot to look forward to when you come to work. And it's not always fun and games, but they work hard. It's a really good environment and I'm pretty proud of that because I think that's one of my main goals in being in business is to really create that culture."
