Personality:
Describing Gabrielle in one word would be impossible, because there are multiple faces that she wears. You could ask her best friends to describe her, and they would likely list off a bunch of alluring traits, like how she's generous, and a great listener, and always looks out for her friends. She's protective of them and is more than willing to take down anyone who hurts them, and she's someone who truly values genuine friendships. She can be fun and silly and down to earth, as long as she's around the right people. Her friends know her as the girl who loves to sing to every song in the car, will participate in retail therapy with you for hours after a bad breakup, and is always willing to host sleepovers that end in everyone staying up until five in the morning.
As a Queen Bee, Gabrielle has definitely experienced her fair share of drama. Really, she's experienced enough to appoint herself as a a drama expert. It's not something that she necessarily wanted from the start, because at one point, just like anyone else, drama scared her. She didn't like confrontations or being put on the spot for gossip she started or spread behind someone's back. By now though, drama is second nature to her. She's comfortable with being put on the spot, and most things related to drama don't make her bat an eye. She's very calm and collected, and has a relaxed demeanor even in the darkest of hours. That doesn't mean that it still doesn't scare her a little on the inside, but it's like Gabby has developed the ability to turn off her emotions when she needs to. She thinks of it as self-preservation. If other people see it as her being cold hearted, mean and emotionless, then so be it. She's not going to lose any sleep over it.
Gabrielle has many traits of a leader, beyond just the social character traits that led her to be unofficially appointed Queen Bee among her peers. She's intelligent, and prides herself in maintaining a 4.0 average. She isn't a natural born genius, so it does require some effort, but it's something that she's willing to put in, on top of kissing the asses of her teachers. She's confident and is a great public speaker, and isn't afraid of speaking her mind and airing her opinions, be it during a debate, or just a social conversation among friends.

History:
Gabrielle is the offspring of Debra and Christopher Lawrence, a couple who were the epitome of love... until they had a child. They never told Gabby that, of course, but in reality, the two of them likely would still be together if they hadn't decided to have a child. Gabrielle being brought into the world was something that they both looked forward to, but as top executives at the same media corporation, their schedules didn't have as much spare time to raise a child, as they would have expected. Neither of them wanted to abandon the baby, because they did love Gabby, but things became tense when Chris expected Debra to quit her job and raise Gabby. She spent a few months doing that, before being ready to tear her hair out, and insisting that she return to work. She did, and a nanny took over raising Gabby for the next three years, but by then, the marriage between Debra and Christopher had reached its expiration date. There was too much fighting and too much unhappiness, and both decided that things would be better if they saw other people.
While Debra spent the next thirteen years dating an assortment of men, it only took three years for Christopher to get remarried. Gabrielle remained close to both of her parents, but continued to live with her mother. Her parents never went to court over their divorce, and everything ended pretty civilly. It was only when her mother got engaged, and then married to Sergey Brin, that Gabrielle left her childhood home and moved in with her mother and step-mother. While the home is an upgrade, it's not like Gabrielle wasn't wealthy before her mother got remarried. Sergey is nice, and Gabby really can't complain... but she still will. The transition has just been weird for her, and has made her want to distract herself even more than before with her friends and schools.
Academic History:
Gabrielle has attended Brentwood since kindergarten. She's intelligent and makes sure that she does well in all of her classes.
