“The desire of gold is not for gold. It is for the means of freedom and benefit.”

SPEAKER BIO

Kellie Miller grew up in San Francisco, just blocks from the Crooked Street.  She went to Cornell University where she double majored in Civil and Environmental Engineering, and then worked with a non-profit in China for 9 years, where she got to know her husband Kyle while building a composting latrine together.  In early 2020, Kellie, Kyle and their six-month old daughter left China for a family vacation, and then the world shut down due to Covid 19.  They decided to settle in Boise, and a friend facetimed them through their China apartment to pack up 4 boxes of the sentimental and valuable, and they said goodbye to the rest. 

Kellie now works with her dad as an investment advisor, helping people grow and protect their money.  She earned her MBA, is an Accredited Asset Management Specialist, and a Certified Kingdom Advisor.  She and her husband Kyle have two young children.  Her hobbies include camping, reading, grass volleyball, cooking, gardening, golfing – and anything else outdoors.
