Get to know John a little better below!
1. A taboo topic I love talking about is: Men’s mental health! We all go through struggles in life, but I see a lot of great men try to mask the pain they’re going through.
2. I think a celebrity couple that is the definition of #relationshipgoals is: Damon and Elena from “Vampire Diaries,” sans all the killing.
3. My guilty pleasure is: Rom-coms. I blame my sister for that.
4. The best relationship advice I ever received was: Find someone as weird as you.
5. My zodiac sign is ___________ and my most [insert zodiac sign] trait would be: The only zodiac my family uses is the Chinese zodiac, of which I’m a pig, which makes sense because I eat anything and everything.
6. My biggest pet peeve is: Someone who’s always on their phone when you’re talking to them. Give me your UNDIVIDED ATTENTION, my stories are amazing.
7. The first thing I do when I wake up is: Say “Morning, bubs” to my dog.
8. My last meal on earth would be: My mom’s cooking. Any other answer and I would get disowned…
9. The song that always gets me pumped up is: “Unwritten,” Natasha Bedingfield.
10. My current phone screensaver is: A rare moment of my dog, Kaiba, not being an absolute menace.
11. The movie I’ve rewatched the most is: Any movie with Anne Hathaway, namely “The Devil Wears Prada.”
12. The most famous person who has slid into my DMs/followed me on social media is: My mom sometimes comments on my IG posts…
13. My favorite emoji is: 👀👀
14. My favorite part of being on “The Bachelorette” was: Creating lifelong friendships with some amazing guys.
15. Being on “The Bachelorette” taught me:Sometimes you need to put yourself in uncomfortable situations to grow. There’s absolutely nothing crazier than being completely vulnerable on national TV with people you’ve only just met, but it’s an experience I’ll never regret having and I truly think I’m a better person because of it.
16. My celebrity crush is: Ana de Armas, no explanation necessary.
17. My advice for anyone who goes on “The Bachelorette” is: Be your authentic self, lean into the experience, and never compromise who you are.
18. If I had to hang out with only three people from Bachelor Nation for the rest of my life, it would be: I’ll take any of the guys from my season. Selecting only three is TOUGH, but give me Joey, Warwick, and James.
19. If you go on “The Bachelorette,” don’t forget to pack: Pepcid AC. If you know, you know. If you don’t, you probably don’t get Asian flush.
20. Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Living life to the fullest with my forever person, thinking about kids now that we’ve already traveled to every continent (sans Antarctica), and being fulfilled in my career and/or pursuing a Ph.D. One thing this experience has shown me, you can’t plan too far ahead; God’s got other plans.
