Gavin Konopka, owner & operator
Gavin started mowing lawns at 8 years old. At 14 he launched his first business, K6 Kutz, pushing his equipment down the sidewalks of his neighborhood to serve neighbors door to door.
Today that business is Paradise Bay Lawns: the same work ethic and attention to detail, with professional equipment, year-round plans and a growing list of loyal customers. He balances the business with sports and school, and was featured in the community's Rising Stars spotlight.
