20 years ago.
As life’s journey unfolds, we encounter a myriad of obstacles—speed bumps, sharp turns, and occasional breakdowns. One such breakdown happened on Highway 85, just outside Ajo, AZ. Stranded at a service station under the scorching sun, with sunburn from the beaches of Mexico and two panting dogs by my side, a shift in perspective began to take shape. Highway 85, the dusty stretch of road renowned for guiding desert-dwellers to the pristine beaches of Puerto Penasco, Mexico, unexpectedly became the gateway to a new chapter in life.
I envisioned building a company unlike any other, one that would break free from traditional norms. In a mere matter of months, I opened Highway 85 Creative, driven solely by my unwavering determination and a vision to establish an exhibit and event company from the ground up. Fast forward almost two decades, filled with valuable life lessons and countless memorable moments. I’m proud to say that we’ve retained our homegrown essence—it’s at the core of everything we do.
