My Story

MOMENTI began during a time of uncertainty.

In the midst of COVID, I was also experiencing a different kind of loss. My beautiful nonna, who had shaped so much of who I was, was living with dementia, and our relationship was changing in a way I didn’t yet know how to process.

So I turned to what she had taught me.

Food. Hospitality. Generosity. Bringing people together. Creating something beautiful around a table.

I had always loved these things, but I had never quite known what to do with them. In that season, they became my way of honouring her — and MOMENTI was born.

What began with food and intimate gatherings slowly evolved.

About a year later, I had a dream of the MOMENTI name on dinnerware. It was such a clear image that I knew I had to explore it. Soon after, I met someone who helped me bring that vision to life, and MOMENTI Casa began to take shape.

But even as MOMENTI grew through catering, events and beautiful objects for the home, I always felt there was another layer.

I had a deep passion for wellness, healing, personal growth and helping women become more connected to themselves. I didn’t initially understand how that belonged within MOMENTI — I simply knew that it did.

During my nonna’s journey with dementia, I experienced a moment with her that stayed with me deeply. At a time when she could barely communicate, she looked at me and said:

“My darling, you need to learn.”

There was something about that moment that felt far greater than the words themselves. It became an invitation to keep learning, growing, exploring and understanding the gifts I had been given.

Over time, I began to understand that MOMENTI was never simply about food or dinnerware.

It was about creating spaces.

Spaces where people feel connected.

Spaces where beauty encourages us to slow down and be present.

Spaces where women can come together, learn from one another, grow and become more deeply connected to who they are.

Today, that purpose lives through MOMENTI in different ways.

Through MOMENTI Experiences, we create beautiful moments that bring people together.

Through MOMENTI Casa, we create beautiful pieces that transform everyday rituals and the tables around which life happens.

And through MOMENTI Club, we create spaces for women to connect, learn, grow and empower one another.

Different expressions, but one heart.

Because ultimately, MOMENTI is about more than what sits on the table.

Create beautiful spaces. Create meaningful moments.
