BellaRu Catering started nearly a decade ago as a boutique catering company focused on world cuisine and hospitality. As the business evolved, I shifted toward more intimate, chef-led work, launching ChefMaya LLC for Private Chef Experiences. BellaRu is now evolving into Studio1480, a shared kitchen and creative space supporting food entrepreneurs through mentorship, licensed kitchen access, and creative services.
