Aubrie Kobernus, CEO of RLI, stated, "Luke has a professionalism and spirit of giving that distinguishes the Land REALTOR® of America from others. He gives back to our organization, his fellow members, and his community while not asking for anything for himself." “It is an incredible honor to receive this award. RLI has forever shaped who I am. Any contributions I make within the organization, and within the land industry as a whole, pale in comparison to the ways in which they have grown me as a land professional,” said Luke Worrell, ALC upon receiving the award.
