According to ABC, Justin is "one hell of a catch" in that he's tall, handsome and has a great career, but will Katie view him in that light and fall for him?

The 30-year-old bank marketing manager from Lynnwood, WA, said she's definitely "ready to find love" -- and not "the temporary kind" -- when she was cast as The Bachelorette star in March following her appearance on Matt James' The Bachelor season.

"I'm talking forever, my husband, and I'm in a place in my life where I feel like I'm the best version of me," Katie said.

Katie was eliminated from Season 25 of The Bachelor season before hometown dates, but she made a big imprint on Matt and home viewers with her raunchy humor and attempt to stop drama and girl-on-girl bullying in the house.

Katie will experience "a whirlwind first evening" on The Bachelorette, but will her night conclude with Justin receiving a rose -- or will Katie send him packing when she narrows down her 30 suitors to only 23 bachelors at the first Rose Ceremony?

In the meantime, let's learn a little bit more about Justin and what makes him tick. Does Justin have what it takes to win Katie's heart?
