Ms. Miller founded IC with the understanding that an intrinsic wisdom exists in humanity to heal environmental and social injustice, through the expansion of consciousness.

In August 2019, Ms. Miller was part of the first international aid mission to arrive on the ground in Bolivia to combat the Amazon fires, along with the organization Global Empowerment Mission, experts in disaster relief.

In the process, she developed close relationships with members of government, the private sector, and the non-profit world. Ms. Miller holds a Masters in Management and is a member of the International Women’s Earth and Climate Initiative Advisory Council.
