Then: Worked in the home-building industry for 22 years; laid off in January 2011.
Now: Owner of The Last Crumb, a cookie and baked-goods business that sells at farmers markets and to corporations, businesses and individuals online.
How she got started: After being laid off, Kabarsky applied week after week for positions in the new-home construction industry but never got any responses. Discouraged and bored, she brought up the idea of opening a sweets business to her husband, Mark, who was supportive. Initially thinking she would bake out of her home, she soon discovered that California law prohibits it.
Well done.
