He was a member of the United States national Nordic combined ski team from 1968 to 1974. Miller was named "All-American in Nordic Combined" (1970). Miller received his Bachelor's degree in Business Administration from Fort Lewis and his Masters of Commercial Recreation from the University of Utah (1976).
