What is 'Love is Blind' Season 5 contestant Johnie Maraist's ideal type?

Netflix claims 'Love is Blind' Season 5 contestant Johnie is "proud to be a constant work in progress." Despite achieving tremendous success in her career, Johnie appears to have failed in her love life often choosing "the wrong kind of man." 

Therefore, the star has come to find love in a different way in 'Love in Blind.' 

Johnie's ideal type is a slightly younger, pretty boy.

However, Johnie is coming to 'Love is Blind' with an open heart and mind.

Since she is indecisive in nature she is looking out for a guy who knows what exactly he is looking for.

Johnie is looking for someone who is "responsible and intelligent, but also someone who has a sense of humor."
