Hey, I'm Ingrid

Product Designer and lover of many things.

I care about creating thoughtful and intentional user experiences. I believe a good experience is designed to put the user front and center, built for longevity, and improve the community and world around us.

Having lived across three continents and growing up in the emerging cities of Shanghai and Hong Kong has provided me with the unparalleled opportunity to broaden my perspectives and shape my ability to tackle unique challenges and create inclusive experiences for everyone.

When I’m not designing;

I love museum hopping, yoga, traveling, learning languages, reading, and appreciating the slow, analog joys of life.

Well don't just take my word

Some incredibly generous words from colleagues and collaborators

Chris H.

Content Project Manager

Ingrid has been a ray of sunshine during my transition to Sims CPM. She is diligent, knowledgeable, and has a fantastic attitude. I am impressed with her work ethic and she has a lot of potential. I expect that she will succeed in whatever she does.

Calvin W.

Senior Development Director

Ingrid has been crucial to the success of The Sims over the years, always executing with quality and player experience in mind.

Micah K.

Content Project Manager

Ingrid’s a beast. She did a lot of heavy lifting and when I was beginning to lose steam, I’d look at the progress she’d made and felt inspired to match that pace. Ingrid also helped with the original design of the hub page, which gave us an easy template to work off of for the remaining of the pages. Fantastic job overall!

Rob J.

Content Project Manager

It has been a blast working with Ingrid and she has made my life so much easier.

Graeme B.

Senior Project Manager

Ingrid was absolutely instrumental for the launch of Volta, FIFA early access, various other articles, 3rd party implementations and bug fixes. None of these would have launched on time without their assistance.
