KITCHEN MANAGER

Teondra started her love for food through art. As a child she always loved crafts, painting and drawing. At the age of 9 she found herself in the kitchen with a few failed attempts at breakfast for mom. As a teenager, she began working as an amusement park photographer, a face painter and also worked as a hostess/server at Texas Roadhouse.  

She began her management career at the age of 17 in the fast food industry. She soon realized that food is art, which led to her time at Johnson & Wales University. While at JWU, Teondra earned both an Associate’s degree and Bachelor’s degree. Over the years, she built her skills moving on to manage a food truck, work in prep kitchens, the US Open golf tournament and a few other restaurants, before Chef Rob reeled her into the Twisted Eats Kitchen. 

As the Kitchen Manager for Kre8, Teondra has learned to extend her skills while working along-side Chef Rob. Teondra manages the daily kitchen operations – to include staffing, food purchasing & production, and the execution of Chef Rob’s Twisted Eats.
