Justin gushed about Katie being "smart and real," and he said that as a painter, his hands know what they're doing.

"Hopefully I can show Katie I know my way around her as well," Justin noted with a laugh.

Justin gifted Katie a painting he had made of red roses in the shape of a heart, and he told Katie that he'd continue to work on the painting as the season progressed and they got to know each other better.

Justin also snagged one of the first kisses of the season!

According to ABC, Justin is "one hell of a catch" in that he's tall, handsome and has a great career, but will Katie fall for him?

The 30-year-old bank marketing manager from Lynnwood, WA, said she's definitely "ready to find love" -- and not "the temporary kind" -- after failing to find love with Matt James on The Bachelor's 25th season.

"I'm talking forever, my husband, and I'm in a place in my life where I feel like I'm the best version of me," Katie said.

Katie narrowed down her 30 bachelors to 23 suitors by the end of her first evening as the Bachelorette, and Justin was certainly one of the men who received a rose.

But what do we really know about Justin so far? Does he have what it takes to be Katie's "person?" Let's learn some information about The Bachelorette bachelor right now.
