Baton Rouge’s Most Eligible Bachelorette

In January, we launched our first Most Eligible Bachelor and Bachelorette contest. The response was overwhelming with more than 12,000 votes cast for the 10 male and 10 female finalists in our online poll. Each winner will receive dinner for two at a local restaurant. Meet the winners and runners-up, and see the percentages of the vote totals they each received, below.

EMI GILBERT (19.09%)

Age: 32
Occupation: Director of Development, LSU College of Science
Hobbies: Exercising—running mostly—reading, spending time with friends and family, shopping and traveling. I’m usually up for anything.
Life motto: “Whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.” Max Ehrmann said that. Also, Philippians 4:13: “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
On dating in Baton Rouge: In Baton Rouge, I am surrounded by really great, smart, and fun people whose company I enjoy. Unfortunately, very few of these people are single, eligible men or have single, eligible male friends. I’m grateful to have friends who are on the lookout for me—even when it is a little embarrassing!
