Owner and Company director
Having spent the first couple of decades travelling through all outback parts of Queensland, Northern Territory and the Torres Strait to areas without an optical service, it was time to settle down from the transient lifestyle to something a little more permanent. I was offered a position with a large optical chain to manage the group of 30 practices, that job lasted for almost 10 years. It was most rewarding and certainly challenging but by 1998 it was time to move on again. Budget Eyewear Morayfield (then 3 years old), a practice struggling to survive, was up for sale. I thought at the time “I can make that successful”. So, I bought it. In less than 2 years we were voted Franchisee of the Year (2000) by our peers and again in 2002. In 2014 we became truly independent with a new name "Morayfield Eyewear", new fit out, new colours …. same old faces.

Hi there, my name is Kim and I’ve been in optics for many years. I first started with a large optical chain back in the late 80’s, the trends then were very different to now. I joined Morayfield Eyewear in early 2000’s, I enjoy working for a small independent practice. I feel it’s more personalised with customer service. Away from work I enjoy my time with family, fur kids and friends.

Hello, I'm Tash. I have served in optical dispensing for over 10 years. I very much enjoy the industry and helping our community see clearly. My most enjoyable duty is dispensing the right style frames and lenses for each individual, to create your unique style and offer better visibility for you with your prescription.
Everyday serves new learning techniques so I am always learning and keeping skills fresh.
I'm a working mother raising two daughters, in my "spare" time I like to enjoy nature and caring for my 3 dogs.
