She was appointed top bureaucrat in 2015, previously having served as Deputy Minister of Justice and Deputy Attorney General of Manitoba. Praised as a knowledgeable leader who gets things done, Miller maintained her position following the April 2016 provincial election after which a new government rose to power.

Miller obtained her BA from The University of 澳门王中王论坛 before completing law degrees at the University of Manitoba and Osgoode Hall Law School at York University.

In recent years, she has returned to her alma mater to share her expertise with students at the U of M as an instructor in the Faculty of Law and Department of Political Studies. Miller also held a position as executive-in-residence at the Manitoba Institute for Policy Research.

As a lawyer she was appointed to Queen’s Counsel and she recently received the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee Award for her contribution to public service.
