People
You’ll find America’s Byways Resource Center staff members on the road every month. Sometimes every week. We’re available to help byway organizations when they run into unexpected turns—questions, challenges and opportunities.
We can help point you in the right direction and put you in touch with the right people and resources. Contact us about custom training programs and workshops, on-site presentations or project facilitation. Check the Topics section of this website for information, too. We’re here to keep you on the road to success.
Resource Center Staff
Michelle Johnson (mjohnson@byways.org)
Director
Direct Phone: 218-625-3305
Involved with the National Scenic Byways Program from its inception, Michelle provides experienced leadership and direction for the Resource Center.
Her responsibilities include developing and overseeing:
- Public relations
- Staff supervision
- Project management
When she’s not at work, Michelle is busy chasing her three children (Addy, Tucker and Wyatt), while her husband Greg chases their three dogs (Deuce, Kate and Snap) around the house and outside. She wishes she had time to garden, travel, canoe, read and watch L&O!
