Nominator Rachel O'Brien.
Andovers connection: Lives and works in Andover.
What Rachel said: "As a friend of Kristina, I would like to nominate her for most eligible bachelorette. As you can tell by the great shape she is in . . . she takes great care of herself and likes almost any physical fitness there is. She likes to bike ride, hike (she hiked a 4,500 ft. mountain last fall) and works out at the gym regularly. She also loves horses and rides as often as she can. This woman knows how to have fun . . . when out with the girls, she likes dancing and is always up for any adventure thrown her way. She has a great sense of humor and laughs a lot. But by day she is a professional at a company in the finance group. She is a graduate of Merrimack College where she completed her degree in Accounting while working full-time. Everyone that knows her can't believe she has not yet been swept away by the man of her dreams, but he just hasn't come along yet. So, by nominating her, it might be easier for him to find her.."
Nominators: Ericka Isensee and Tim Cagle.

What Tim said: "A multi-talented woman who balances multiple challenges. Debby is a medical malpractice attorney who is a partner in the firm of Cagle & Pearson, P.C. in Andover. Her work is demanding and requires diligence, but she works hardest at making sure her children are flourishing. She combines outer beauty, fashion sense, elegance and dedication with a superb sense of humor and a presence of warmth and kindness to all. Just don't lie to her under oath!"

Nominator: Michaela Ristuccia.

What Michaela said: "She is not only beautiful, but she is the whole package — gorgeous, smart, kind, funny, motivated, successful, and just an all around love! Lauren does a lot to give back to the community and help others. She is a true townie and can be caught hanging out with the who's who of The Andovers at any of the local hot spots. She is downright fun and cool and if you choose her as one of the finalists, you will see exactly what I mean!
Nominator Alexa Christakos.
Andovers connection: Lives and works here.
What Alexa said: "Not only is Meredith super hot, she is also the entire package. I have been working with her for the past four months and have been amazed that someone with such a beautiful face, kick-ass body and just as captivating personality, has not been in any sort of meaningful relationship. She is really easy going, loves music and going out and having a good time. Total catch for a guy when they find out she is a sports fan, too!"
Nominator Meridith Gregory.

What Meredith said: "Gabriella is beautiful both on the inside and out. She is an extremely intelligent, generous, warm and genuine person. She was born in Budapest, Hungary. After living in Germany for a brief period of time, Gabriella and her family moved to the United States when she was 12 years old. Gabriella was raised in Buffalo, New York and moved to Massachusetts to attend law school in Boston. Gabriella is educated: She has a master's degree in education and a juris doctor degree. She speaks four languages: English, Hungarian, Russian and German. Gabriella is a beautiful and wonderful person who should win this contest!"
