KOLOUR BY KAZ'S Entrepreneurial Journey
- Kaz embarked on her entrepreneurial journey during the tumultuous early days of the first lockdown amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. With a rich 20-year background in the Entertainment Industry as a skilled lighting technician, spotlight operator, and driver, her life took a swift turn.
- Just a week prior, she was in Coffs Harbour working on an unforgettable Elton John concert with her role being lead driver in charge of a team of 9. She returned to Sydney, only to drive AHA through the picturesque Hunter Valley — and within a mere 48 hours, She witnessed her entire work schedule, packed with opportunities, vanish into thin air.
- The long-anticipated dream holiday to Greece, complete with a private chef aboard a luxurious boat cruising the enchanting islands for six weeks, crumbled before Kaz’s eyes. In the face of this loss, she made a bold decision investing all her savings into a newfound passion, crafting an innovative idea that evolved into a flourishing business. Five years later, it continues to thrive, a testament to resilience during the harsh 2.5-year drought in the entertainment sector. Kaz still lights up stages for superstars and recently lighting Air Supplies 50th Anniversary and driving on Teddy Swims' tour.
