Who is Ency Abedin?

Ency Abedin is a 28-year-old model, who used to work as an executive assistant brand manager before locking her role on the show. Ency has also previously worked at a coffee company called 'Better Brew'. What's more, during her time studying abroad, Ency taught English to North Korean defectors.



 

Ency was born in California. She was raised and currently lives in Los Angeles. With the Scorpio sign as her zodiac, she is of Korean, Iranian, and American descent. 



 

When it comes to love, Ency is a true romantic. As of now, she has taken a break from her career so that she can completely focus on finding the love that she deserves. She wants to find someone who is tall and has a nice smile.

Ency's partner should also be constantly striving to grow with her both on personal and professional levels. An added bonus would be if her significant other loves the ocean as much as she does. 



 

Ency seems to be a fun-loving and carefree woman and her Instagram stands by this. She also loves 'Dance Revolution' and is always looking for opportunities to get dressed.

Will Ency be the perfect fit for Clayton? Stay tuned to know more!
