The bachelorette stayed close to home for college

Serene graduated from the University of Central Oklahoma in 2020 with a Bachelor of Arts degree.

While in school, she was a proud and active member of the Sigma Kappa sorority.

When it comes to her dream partner, Serene wants to find a man who is truly worthy of her commitment and ready to give her that same level of commitment back.

Her ideal guy is honest, clear on what he wants, and an excellent communicator. He'll also be open to trying new things and willing to be vulnerable.
 

Serene is a model and has a big interest in fashion

Serene has only been working as a teacher for close to two years.

She is a commercial and print model represented by The Tabb Agency, and she's been signed to that agency since December 2014.

The Bachelor bachelorette wants to have a big family

Serene and Clayton could be a great match because they both want children very badly and to have a big family!

Right now, her only baby is a cat named Leonardo DiCATprio.

ABC says Serene has a huge heart and a lot of love to give.


Serene could never be a morning person

Serene says she and the moon are too much in love for her to be a morning person.

A few more fun facts about Serene is that she once served as a Ring Girl for a boxing match, her absolute favorite color is red, guinea pigs freak her out, she loves musical theater, and her happy place appears to be the beach.


Serene calls herself a teacher, leader and storyteller

Although Serene works as a teacher now, she didn't know in college that she would want to make teaching her profession, and so she had majored in Professional Media (Journalism) and minored in Photography instead.

Serene, however, says she became a teacher in order to do something meaningful with her life. She prides herself on the relationships she builds with her students and filling them with knowledge for the future.
