Name (Age): Ivy Daniels (32)

Current Residence: Columbus, OH

Occupation: Motivational Speaker

Personal Claim to Fame: Becoming a successful motivational speaker. It's been a goal of mine ever since I was young and I just love making a difference in people's lives.

​Inspiration in Life:  Katherine Johnson, Dorothy Vaughan, and Mary Jackson. Those three women helped pioneer black women in the space industry and show me, and my fellow black sisters, that anything is possible.

Hobbies: Speaking is my number one. I really love my job. Second is spending time with my three kids, two in high school, one in middle school, and my wonderful and loving husband, Mitch.

Pet Peeves Ignorant people. They grind my gears and just piss me off.

Three Words to Describe You: Caring, loving, and a hardworker.

SURVIVOR contestant you are most like: Cirie Fields. I feel like we have a lot of similarities to each other and that's a good thing.

​Reason for Being on SURVIVOR​: To win the million to help support my kids in college later on in the road.

​Why you think you'll "survive" SURVIVOR: I'm tough and strong willed and can make it through any tough situation.

​Why you think you'll be the SOLE SURVIVOR: I'm very likeable and can get along fairly well with others. With that, I am pretty sure I could knock it out of the park if I think smart and play all my cards right.



Name (Age): Blake Calhoun (24)

Current Residence: Orlando, FL

Occupation: College Athlete

Personal Claim to Fame: Making my college's baseball team.

​Inspiration in Life: My dad. He's been there for me and my little sister ever since my mom died when I was young. He's been a great influence in my life.

Hobbies: Working out and spending time socializing with my friends.

Pet Peeves People who make fun of others and are just plain rude. I hate it and it makes me upset when they pick on someone who can't accurately defend themselves.

Three Words to Describe You: Athletic, charming, and likeable.

SURVIVOR contestant you are most like: Carter Williams because we are both very under the radar, as in chill, and are pretty likeable. I would say he is way more athletic then I am, though I consider myself pretty fit.

​Reason for Being on SURVIVOR​: Winning that million dollar prize!

​Why you think you'll "survive" SURVIVOR: I've been in the boy scouts for the past ten years, and stopped once I graduated from high school. I have the necessary skills to survive in the wilderness, though I will only utilize in dire need. I don't want targets to fall on my back for these skills.

​Why you think you'll be the SOLE SURVIVOR: I am willing to do whatever it takes to win. I am not afraid to take risks whenever necessary.
