It is my pleasure to recommend Amelia Shuja and Tula
Consulting for coordinating the construction of commercial
kitchens. We were lucky to meet Amelia when we were building
a small restaurant for a nonprofit social enterprise in Portland,
Oregon and needed her expertise. Amelia joined our team to
coordinate the detailed documentation, permitting, and
construction of the commercial kitchen.
Amelia successfully managed multiple teams between the
designers, owners, contractors, and tenants. Additionally, she
was detail oriented, matching equipment specifications across
disparate manufacturers to meet the client’s programmatic
needs and constrained budget. Finally, Amelia’s good
understanding of architectural drawings and health inspection
requirements allowed our team to streamline the approval
process and meet our schedule on time.

“I have worked with Amelia on several projects, mostly building and maintaining large pantry operations. She is great at forecasting product needs with growth, constantly providing variety, and keeping the program fresh! She is great at creating a vision, letting the supporting staff run with it, and creating an amazing hospitality experience.”
