Christy Miller, a visionary educational leader, is known for her abilities to support and grow struggling schools and systems. With an unwavering commitment to student success, Christy has dedicated her life to transforming underperforming educational institutions into beacons of light. This dedication began as a young child learning from the model her parents provided as public educators at the K12 and higher education levels. Bill and Rosemary Phillips, dedicated their lives to helping improve the lives of their students and community, always guiding the way for others to seek and find their excellence along the way.

The proudest moments aside from being grandparents are watching the paths each of them has taken to serve others in the field of pharmacology, law enforcement and law, engineering, and supporting our Veterans at the WV Veterans Nursing Home.
