Newell Brands reveals female leaders behind iconic brands

Newell Brands recently asked some of its female engineers to share what excites them about their jobs.

• Vina Le, a Packaging Engineer in Learning & Development, develops packaging solutions for our writing brands. As an artist, she loves working on products she can use for her hobbies. She shared, “Engineering allows you to problem-solve in ways that require a more technical and logistical approach. For me, that was how my brain worked best. I aspire to apply this analytical approach not only in my daily work schedule but also in my personal life.”
• Rachel Holt, Senior Product Engineer works with a cross-functional team to “take a product from an idea on a sticky note to what consumers see on the shelf.” These include the Baby Jogger® city suite™ Multi-Level Playard, her favourite project. She believes that building a strong relationship with a new supplier and her team’s collective passion led to the development of this innovative product, providing a comfortable, safe space for infants and toddlers to rest and play.
• Courtney Pratt, Associate Design Engineer said: “I wanted to be an engineer after my team won first place for building the tallest and strongest spaghetti and marshmallow tower in the third grade. It was then I realized I loved using my love for designing and building things to see it come together.”

Newell Brands is one of Forbes’ Best Employers for Women in 2023. It is committed to providing an inclusive and supportive environment to female employees. The company is proud that passionate engineers like Vina, Rachel and Courtney chose to share their talent with Newell Brands.
