The Issue: Excerpt from the interview:
To some extent, technology and money management are still male-dominated worlds. Does this affect you on the job?
I am aware that there can be a double standard, still, for women. Once when I was out marketing some of the funds, someone told me that he liked my numbers, but wanted to know who took care of my family.
I was flabbergasted. Every man you`ve ever thought of letting manage your money is probably also responsible for a family as well. To ask me that question implies that the men aren`t ever responsible for their families, and that`s not right. But no one in this industry or at my job has ever questioned my abilities just because I have a family.
