Bio
Linda is a businesswoman who has spent her life striving to excel at all that she’s pursued. She comes from a family where education was an expectation; she was fortunate to have incredible role models in her mother and aunts – women with bachelor’s and master’s degrees which was rare for their time in the ’40s and ’50s.
Ms. Berk received her Bachelor of Science and master’s degrees in Communication Arts from Cornell University. Linda continued to pursue educational opportunities as she began her professional career at Cornell in the University Admissions office, with postgraduate study and a certificate in marketing from Harvard University. Her career has spanned many areas, from serving as Director of Admissions at Pratt Institute to entrepreneur and manager of recording artist Ashanti, getting her career off the ground toward record-setting stardom. 2019 Linda was named to the Bronx Power 100 list by City and State Magazine.
While Linda has enjoyed success in many endeavors throughout her career, her most rewarding accomplishment has been her 7-year service on the Riverbay Board of Directors, serving as its president for almost 5 years. As president of this large, complex housing development, Linda’s goal was to modernize the IT infrastructure of Co-Op City to bring the development into the 21st Century. She led an incredible transformation as Co-Op City became an exemplary community, equivalent to the 10th largest city in New York State. Riverbay Corporation, the management company of Co-Op City, had gone from $900,000 in cash on hand to over $215 million during her presidency with an occupancy rate of more than 92%. Linda considers this experience to be among her proudest accomplishments.
