A small-town Michigan girl who prides herself on having both beauty and brains, Lilly Jenkins is here to twist bad first impressions into a strength. With her small size earning her many diminutive nicknames amongst her friends, Lilly is often mistaken as airheaded because she doesn’t always speak the most eloquently and has been known to lose her train of thought. However, Lilly is actually a college-educated engineer. She’s been married to her husband for five years, and he was the one who encouraged her to pursue a STEM degree when they met during her second month at Michigan State University. In this competition, Lilly wants to play the middleman and be influential, but unassuming. She's highly observant and typically gets along with people easily. Her ditzy personality can fool people into thinking she’s not a threat while she stirs the pot in the background. People always trust Lilly with the latest gossip, and she’s more than happy to spread the juiciest tea if it means winning.
