Ivy Box (born Ivy Box, May 11, 1983) is one of the cast mates of BET’s debut reality spin-off series College Hill Interns.
College Hill Interns follows 10 college educated strangers on their summer internship program in Chicago. The cast participates in challenges and charitable activities while balancing the social pressures of the Windy City.
The daughter of a Haitian Activist and niece of a Haitian Senator, Ivy is no stranger to hardwork, determination, and perseverance. She was born and raised in Fort Myers, Florida. Growing up Ivy attended 8 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 3 high schools. Her many educational transitions sculpted her into a multi-faceted individual that could adapt to any environment as well as identify and breakthrough many cultural and social barriers. These experiences gave her the drive to become an actress and entrepreneur. Ivy believes that "acting is a form of expression and a great way to tell multiple stories visually. Actors have the ability to break through cultural and social barriers while unveiling someone else's story."
After graduating from high school, Ivy moved to Tampa, Florida to attend the University of South Florida where she majored in Business Marketing. Her extracurricular activities while at USF combined with her years of training diversified her talent spectrum. Ivy was able to incorporate acting, dance, hosting, event coordinating and promotions, consulting, and recording arts to her repertoire.
Ivy Box is a multi-faceted "entertainer and business mogul savant" who cites "the world" as her influences. Ivy aspires to impact the television, film, hospitality and retail industries and to one day own her own television station.
