But recently, the paradigm has begun to shift nationwide, and, as a working mother myself, I can personally say I'm proud Rothstein Kass is a leader in the movement," said Rosalie Mandel, Founder and Principal-in-Charge of the Rothstein Kass LIFE program. "Through our LIFE initiative, I am confident our organization is giving women the tools, training and networking opportunities to reach their full potential professionally and at home."
