From an early age, one thing was clear to Ingrid: dancing was her passion. Her dream of becoming a professional dancer came closer to reality when she was accepted into the Lucia Marthas Academy of Performing Arts in Amsterdam. Alongside dancing, she discovered a natural talent for acting.
After graduating from Lucia Marthas, she played the role of Monica in the television series TopStars. She continued to build her dance career, working with international artists such as Shakira, The Sugababes and LMFAO, as well as Michael Jackson's choreographer.
Media Queen
In 2008, Ingrid won the Netherlands' first televised dance competition, Dancing Queen. Following this success, she became the presenter of Club Kids on Net5 and Totally Fit Kidz on RTL8, and spent several years as a VJ for the music channel Xite.
Her acting career also flourished. She played the leading role in the Dutch feature film Body Language, which achieved Gold status, and went on to win the final two seasons of AVROTROS's popular dance competition Junior Dance as a coach.
In addition, she has hosted a podcast for two years, sharing unfiltered stories and personal experiences from her life.
