Introduction

Ingrid is a TEDx speaker, former corporate leader at Meta, Capital One and Gap and the founder of a coaching and consulting business dedicated to empowering the next generation of leaders.

Her diverse client base spans startup founders, senior executives, and individuals looking to accelerate their purpose and impact.
