Welcome to I Love My Job, the series where we hear from women who really love their jobs. In this edition, we sat down with Jonae Felton, Senior Patent Engineer and Patent Counsel at Mercedes-Benz Research & Development North America (MBRDNA).
Ever since she transitioned to her current role around a year ago, Felton tells us that time has flown! Part of the reason for this is the supportive people around her. “My favorite thing about MBRDNA is my team: the legal and patent team,” Felton shares. “I strive to surround myself with exceptional people, and I have been fortunate, once again, to surround myself with people of character, of excellence, of thoughtfulness, of high performance, of fortitude, and of grace at MBRDNA.”
Not only that, but Felton tells us that her team is also the most diverse one that she’s ever worked on. “I am so appreciative that I can share feedback with them, learn from them, and work alongside them, especially regarding diversity,” she tells us. “For example, my team has been supportive of events that I have organized as a volunteer for the Women at MBRDNA group. My team has also been fundamental to my career objectives to provide exceptional service to my stakeholders.”
In the video, Felton shares more about why she loves working at MBRDNA. We also provide lightly edited highlights from the video discussion in the following article on Fairygodboss – https://bit.ly/47pv4jQ
