Courtney's Beast Games journey
Courtney Ferris was among the 1,000 players vying for the $5 million award on Beast Games. The series is now Amazon Prime Video's most-watched unscripted show despite criticism, as per Variety. It asks participants to undertake mental and physical challenges while strategizing alliances.
Ferris received more exposure in the competition as she went through the rounds, ultimately getting into the top ten and then the top six. However, in episode 9, which was broadcast on February 6, 2025, she got eliminated after getting insufficient votes to go to the finale.
Courtney's background and personal life
Before competing in Beast Games, Ferris had an established career in photography. In an interview with Voyagela, she mentioned that she originally pursued psychology in college with the intent of earning a PhD in Cognitive & Behavioral Neuroscience. However, she decided to change direction after graduation.
"After graduating college I had the opportunity to move to Hawaii, shoot surf photography, manage a cafe, and teach yoga for a living. So of course like any totally sane person would do, I chose that instead of a PhD, and I’m so glad I did," Ferris said.
She later returned to Arizona and co-founded Death2Digital, a media agency that provides services to various clients, including "artists, celebrities, influential people, and Fortune 500 companies," as per The Direct.
