Team Description
Amin Mneina

Cherry Sales
Cherry keeps us on track. As the keeper of timelines, she’s responsible for all Good Roods event logistics, including education, conference, board meetings, and more. Cherry works closely with the education department. Deliverables, thanks to Cherry, are met with resounding regularity.
Tracy Scott
Tracy is our virtual learning expert. She makes sure Good Roads students get the most out of their training experience by clearly outlining all course content and setting measurable objectives for each course.
James Smith
James (Ph.D. University of Waterloo) is our authority on any type of road, from gravel to asphalt to bridge and road-related infrastructure design. It’s hard to imagine anyone more passionate about road design. So it’s entirely appropriate that James leads Good Roads’ science-based research on road building and infrastructure. James is also Adjunct Professor of Engineering at the University of Guelph.

Carmen oversees all member registrations, from educational courses to our conference, including invoicing and billing. She runs the Good Roads office (from the moment you walk in the door). Carmen is our longest-serving employee.
Rachel Swiednicki
Rachel is a brand and communications strategist skilled at building partner relationships. From media relations to sponsorships, she also leads the way for Good Roads being the “connective tissue” between corporate and municipal members. Rachel’s portfolio includes advertising, brand recognition, social media designer, events, and communications.
Seher Taufiq
Seher handles all accounts payable and receivable tasks at Good Roads. A detail-oriented professional, she works alongside our CFO to maintain financial accuracy.
Eric Young
Eric is the headmaster of education and training at Good Roads. He is in charge of our learning management system and guides our team of volunteer instructors and course directors. He also helps develop course content and goals, aimed squarely at helping municipal staff members win at their work.
