Metro Detroit Woman Is A Contestant On 'The Bachelor'

BIRMINGHAM, MI — A metro Detroit woman is a contestant on "The Bachelor," which premiered its 29th season Monday night on ABC.

Parisa, 29, from Birmingham, is one of the 25 women on the show.

"Parisa is empathetic, resilient and ready to settle down. She has always dreamed of starting her own family and longs for an emotionally intimate connection with someone with whom she can be a power couple. She loves to cook, travel and enjoy charcuterie nights … and not to be cheesy, but Parisa is truly one of a kind. She is hoping to meet a man who is loyal, honest and funny, and is excited for her the power of love to guide her on this journey," according to ABC.

Grant Ellis is the bachelor for this season, which premiered Monday night and saw seven women get sent home. Parisa was not one of them, and she'll be around for next week's show.
