ABC says Gabi is "ready to find the one," and her Instagram bio reads that she's "spicier than your average buffalo wing."

Zach told BachelorNation.com that he wants to find a "really compassionate" woman who's "kind to everyone."

"I think a lot of people can be really self-involved. So how you treat people on a day-to-day basis is really important to me," Zach said. "I just want someone who is a really kind, compassionate person."

He also said that going into filming, he was "most nervous" about meeting a woman who joined the show for the wrong reasons.

"I'm most nervous about the fact that there could be people that are on this journey and a part of this experience that don't take it seriously and don't want to actually find love," Zach shared.

"I want to find someone who truly wants a future with me, so that's what scares me the most."

The Bachelor host Jesse Palmer recently teased that Zach's season is "a throwback" and the "most emotional" one he's ever hosted. Jesse also noted how Season 27 will be more "about the love story" and "less about the drama."

Jesse also teased on the "Bachelor Happy Hour" podcast how Zach really "shines" on The Bachelor, and so will Gabi outshine the 29 other women and ultimately be the one to win Zach's heart?

Below is a list of five facts Reality TV World has compiled about Gabriella "Gabi" Elnicki.


Gabi comes from a very loving family

The bachelorette's parents have a healthy marriage that has been the blueprint for the kind of love Gabi hopes to find.

Gabi is so ready for marriage, in fact, she already has her dream wedding venue picked out on Lake Como in Italy, so hopefully Zach would be game for a destination wedding.


It takes time for Gabi to open up and come out of her shell

Gabi won't be the loudest girl in a room or particularly outgoing right off the bat.

But once she feels comfortable with a man, Gabi will show that she's adventurous, loyal and driven. Gabi also enjoys traveling, as she recently spent time in Amsterdam, as well as a good tailgate.


The Bachelor bachelorette dreams of turning her passion for fitness into a job

Gabi hopes to own her own Pilates studio one day.

But for the time being, she is the Senior Account Executive at Calculated Hire in Houston, TX.

Gabi began working for the company as a business recruiter in July 2019.


Gabi earned a college degree in marketing

Gabi graduated from University of Mississippi in 2019 with her Bachelor of Business Administration degree.

While at Ole Miss, she was a member of the Pi Beta Phi fraternity for women.

She also was a member of the National Society of Collegiate Scholars.


The Bachelor bachelorette knows what she wants in a man

Gabi's future husband will be honest, outdoorsy, and will always put her first.

Gabi certainly hoped Zach would turn out to be that man. She even came up with their "couple" name on social media -- "Gach" or "Zabi."
