Miss Power Woman 2016

The Winner of Miss Power Woman 2016 is:

Naoumie Ekiko

Naoumie Ekiko is a Cameroonian actress, influencer, and international model whose path from Douala to New York City exemplifies Miss Power Woman’s ethos of achievement beyond beauty. Crowned Miss Power Woman 2016, she parlayed that milestone into a decade-long career in fashion and media, appearing in campaigns and editorial work for major beauty and lifestyle brands including CoverGirl and features in outlets such as Essence and Club Magazine.

Moving to the United States as a young woman, Naoumie pursued modeling with the discipline of an athlete and the mindset of a builder. She navigated castings, agency meetings, and the realities of a competitive market, ultimately relocating to New York City, where she has modeled for 10+ years while expanding into acting and brand partnerships. Her on-set reputation—punctual, prepared, collaborative—earned repeat bookings and positioned her as a reliable face for beauty and fashion storytelling.

Behind the camera, Naoumie’s philosophy is clear: sustained success grows from self-care, self-love, and professional standards. She speaks candidly about the “ups and downs” of the industry, the importance of boundaries, and the daily habits that keep her grounded—sleep, skin health, training, and community. This personal compass led her to create a mentorship program for aspiring models, focused on confidence, portfolio strategy, audition skills, and the life skills needed to thrive as a person first, professional second.
