We at 3Keys’ offer our congratulations to Linda Booker, Treasurer of 3Keys’ Board of Directors, on her promotion on January 1, 2026 to President of Core5 Industrial Partners. Linda provides adept financial oversight and council to the board. Additionally, Core5 Industrial Partners has been a long-time supporter of our annual fundraiser, Cheers for a Cause.
Linda has been with Core5 for nearly 11 years as its Chief Financial Officer, working closely with the parent company, Kajima USA. As President, Linda will take on leadership for all day-to-day operations, including real estate development, asset management and investments, and legal functions.
From Core5’s press release:
Linda Booker, who will assume the role of President, has been instrumental in Core5’s success since its inception. A key factor in this leadership transition is Linda’s deep and longstanding experience with Kajima, having worked with the organization for more than 30 years, as well as her role as a founder of Core5—providing exceptional continuity for the company, its partners, and its strategic vision. Linda began her career in public accounting at KPMG, where she discovered her passion for commercial real estate. During her tenure at IDI, Core5’s predecessor, she rose to the role of Chief Financial Officer and led the company through the 2008 financial crisis as both a borrower and a real estate developer. Her approach during that challenging period helped to solidify the company’s stellar reputation and foster long-standing relationships that remain strong today.
“I am honored to take the helm of Core5, a company rooted in its core values and guiding principles,” said Linda Booker. “With Kajima’s unwavering support for our Business Plan and strategic direction, Core5 is poised to continue the success we’ve had in the past and capitalize on the steady industrial demand in the future.”
We appreciate Linda’s talent and commitment to the board and Core5’s contributions to 3Keys. Together, we strive to end chronic homelessness in Atlanta.
