A former assistant professor of pharmacology and pediatrics and adjunct assistant of pharmacology at her alma mater, Weill Cornell Medicine at Cornell University, and former adjunct assistant professor of otolaryngology at New York Medical College, Dr. Linday has continued to teach as an assistant clinical professor of pediatrics at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai since 2014.

The former president of Dr. Pockets, Inc., in New York City, Dr. Linday also served as the associate director of clinical research for Ayerst Laboratories in New York City and was the director of medical affairs for Knoll Pharmaceutical Company in Whippany, NJ. During her tenure in medicine, Dr. Linday also lent her expertise as a medical associate for the United Hospitals Medical Center in Newark, NJ, associate adjunct in the department of otolaryngology at the New York Eye and Ear Infirmary in New York City, and senior attending pediatrician at St. Luke's-Roosevelt Hospital Center and Mount Sinai St. Luke's and Mount Sinai West (Roosevelt) in New York City.
