Dawn Hornelaz Owner, Joe’s Furniture
Q: What brought you to Prescott and how long have you been here?
A: The combination of a flood and copper strike lead to us relocating from southeastern Arizona in 1985; we’ve been calling Prescott home ever since. I remember when Highway 69 was only two lanes all the way from town to the I-17, and the only stop light in Prescott Valley was at Robert Road.
Q: How did you become interested in your career field?
A: It’s in my blood … I was born into this furniture family, but I’ve always had a passion for design. I’m fourth generation proud and loving it!!!
Q: What is the biggest challenge of your job?
A: Staying on top of current trends and seeking out the best values for my clients.
Q: What is the greatest reward of your job?
A: Many happy customers. I get to see them years later when they return and help them solve their design and furniture needs.
Q: If you could have dinner with any two people (dead or alive) who would it be?
A: My grandmother and sister. Because family means the world to me, and I miss them so.
Q: What is your favorite Prescott activity?
A: Shopping in the local stores and eating at all the wonderful local restaurants.
