When people ask us why we started Dreamline Design & Exhibits, they’re often expecting a business story.
The truth is, it’s a family story.
After nearly three decades in the trade show industry, Mark had experienced every side of the business—from installation and dismantle, project management, estimating, exhibit design, and national program management. He loved the industry, the creativity, and the opportunity to help companies showcase their brands. But like many professionals, he also knew the reality of working for larger organizations: long hours, constant travel, missed family moments, and the feeling that work always came before life.
We knew there had to be a different way.
So Dreamline wasn’t created simply to build exhibits. It was created to build a life that reflected our priorities.
As parents of six children, we wanted our family to be part of the journey instead of watching it happen from the sidelines. We wanted the flexibility to work from home when possible, to travel together when opportunities arose, and to be present for the moments that matter—ball games, school events, family dinners, and the everyday memories that disappear far too quickly.
At the same time, we wanted to create something that would last beyond us.
Dreamline is our opportunity to build a legacy, not just a company.
Mark brings nearly 30 years of hands-on trade show experience, solving problems, managing complex exhibit programs, and helping clients create successful events. Kristy brings the organizational structure, operational leadership, client communication, and behind-the-scenes coordination that keeps every project moving smoothly. We each have different strengths, and together those strengths allow us to serve our clients in ways that neither of us could accomplish alone.
But the most important part of Dreamline isn’t what we do.
It’s how we do it.
Because we’re family-owned, every client relationship matters. We don’t measure success by the number of projects we complete each year—we measure it by the trust we’ve earned, the partnerships we’ve built, and the confidence our clients have when they know we’ll do what we say we’re going to do.
When your exhibit is on the show floor, it’s more than another project to us. It’s your investment, your reputation, your deadlines, and your goals. We understand that because we’ve built Dreamline the same way we’ve built our family—with commitment, accountability, and the belief that doing the right thing is never optional.
Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of helping businesses launch new products, introduce new brands, grow into new markets, and create unforgettable experiences for their customers. Watching our clients succeed is one of the most rewarding parts of what we do.
In many ways, we’re helping them build their dreams while we’re building ours.
That’s why our slogan, “Building Dreams Into Reality,” means more to us than creating beautiful exhibits. It represents every partnership we form, every challenge we solve, and every opportunity to help another business tell its story.
Dreamline was founded on the belief that success shouldn’t require sacrificing the people who matter most. We believe you can build a thriving business while building a strong family. We believe relationships are more valuable than transactions. We believe integrity is still a competitive advantage. And we believe that when you genuinely care about the people you serve, great work naturally follows.
Our family thanks you for allowing us to be a small part of your journey.
We look forward to helping build your next dream.
