My faith, family and friends are of utmost importance to me. We are members of Springdale Nazarene and my favorite Sundays are when we get to walk together as a family to church. We have a deep love and respect for all of our pastors and enjoy the small groups/classes that are offered. Our kids are also involved in the elementary youth group and Little Sprouts.

My husband, Britt, and I will be married 20 years this July. We met while I attended UC and he attended Dayton and my college teammate was the one who introduced us. We have a 10 year old daughter, Jamison, and a 3 year old son, Jent. We call ourselves "Team Miller" and this year we set a goal as a family to attend every UC women's basketball home game during the 18-19 season. I am happy to report that we met our goal plus three extra postseason games! Team Miller celebrated this amazing record and WNIT run with a trip to Graeter's. I wish we could have ordered the "Boldly Bearcat" flavor, but we are still hoping for a chance to buy a pint or two in stores later on in the Bicentennial year. 

I am extremely passionate about helping young people find their purpose and place in this world. Everyone deserves a chance at a great life. Volunteering, mentoring and philanthropy are some of the greatest ways I see to give back and help pave the way for others. I am so excited to be back here, working in athletics at my alma mater, and living out the UC Foundation vision of "Igniting passion to transform lives!
