Rebecca Twena
Hospitality Professional
Part 1 Architectural Assistant at CHQ Architects
Background
Hi, My names is Rebecca and I’m a hardworking and friendly hospitality professional with six years of experience working across a range of roles in a busy restaurant environment, including front of house, kitchen, and management responsibilities. I enjoy working in fast-paced, team-focused environments and take pride in creating positive experiences for guests through good service, attention to detail, and a positive attitude. Growing up with a Swiss father and spending time skiing in Switzerland, Andorra, and France gave me a real love for mountain life and alpine culture from a young age. After spending the last year in a corporate role, I’m now looking to take on a new challenge and combine my hospitality experience with my passion for skiing.
