Moemoana Schwenke
@moemoanaschwenke
Moemoana is a proud daughter and guardian of the Pacific Islands, stealing hearts across Samoa and beyond when she graced the stage of Miss Samoa 2023. The “Moemoana Effect”? Legendary. Thousands were inspired to take up siva afi, show off their moves on TikTok, and propel the song she used to an impressive 1.9 million views on YouTube. But it wasn’t just Samoa who claimed her - the entire Pacific do too, crowning her Miss Pacific Islands 2024-2025. Raised in a family dedicated to preserving culture, Moemoana believes that Pacific culture is a superpower - one meant to be celebrated and shared. She champions youth empowerment, the performing arts, education, and climate justice, spreading her message far beyond the shores of the Pacific.
