SUMMARY: Ingrid Hunnigan was born in the United States to a Brazilian refugee and a third-generation Irish immigrant. From an early point, she was fascinated with space and computers, and developed skills for programming though company outreach programs in her school. Initially planning for a career with NASA, that changed with the Raccoon City Sterilization.
Convinced there was a coverup, she turned to white hat hacking groups and set on sifting through Umbrella's databases to find connections to anyone within the United States government, and caught the attention of a CIA intelligence officer, Adam Benford. Due to her proficiency with computers and the Brazilian Portuguese, Hunnigan was offered a trial period as a remote coordinator for a clandestine operation near the Amazon Rainforest.
During what later became known as Operation Javier, she provided intelligence to agents Leon Kennedy and Jack Krauser as 'Ingrid Hannah' . She was responsible for monitoring the agents insertion, and periodic updates to the mission. She coordinated air strikes and extraction for the few survivors. Satisfied with her performance, Ingrid was trained directly, and gained the trust of Benford, which allowed her to head Operation Baby Eagle in 2004, when President Graham's secret service detail was compromised, and Ashley Graham was kidnapped.
Since the operation's success, Ingrid was given more responsibility, and eventually was tasked by the new President Benford to create the standards and curriculum for his newly chartered anti-bioterror division, the Department of Security Operations. Hunnigan oversaw the training and recruitment of all potential new agents, and requested recruits from different branches of federal government. One such agent was Helena Harper, however, Ingrid met fierce resistance against Helena's transfer to the DSO. Ingrid maintained contact with Helena during her training as a secret service member.
When President Benford was assassinated in Tall Oaks, Hunnigan helped Leon and Helena maneuver through the infected town, until receiving the information that National Security Advisor, Derek C. Simmons was behind the attack. Ingrid understood that Helena and Leon had been used in a set-up and re-established contact with the two after she followed Simmons to the parking garage, spying on his conversation using a Stingray device that was attached to her laptop.
She informed them that they were going to have to go to China. Mid-flight, their airplane was compromised by a Lepotica BOW, and Hunnigan had to coordinate to help maintain the plane's trajectory and stability. She continued to provide operational intelligence and support until Simmons' death was confirmed, and Leon delivered critical information absolving himself and Helena of any wrongdoing.
Hunnigan has continued to provide intelligence and coordination to present day.
