Santa Barbara residents Marshall Miller and Jennifer Markham have joined the �鶹��ýӳ�� Foundation, which cultivates ties between �鶹��ýӳ�� and the community.

Markham, who earned a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice and political science from American University and a master’s degree in political science from Georgetown University, has a background in criminal law and business. She has raised three children while serving on several boards, including the Junior League, the Storyteller Foundation and the Santa Barbara Museum of Art.

“�鶹��ýӳ�� students are the most delightful people,” she says. “After having about a five-minute conversation with a college-aged adult, I can guess whether they’re a �鶹��ýӳ�� student or not. That is so unique. �鶹��ýӳ�� students have this joy, happiness and excitement about them that you wish all kids that age had.”

Miller, a fifth-generation Californian to work in agriculture, serves with family operations growing lemons, avocados and wine grapes for Bien Nacido Vineyard and Solomon Hill Estates. He earned a Masters of Business Administration from the University of Notre Dame. Previously he worked at CTC Consulting in Portland and has developed a professional interest in environmental law and fiscal management.

Miller attended summer programs at �鶹��ýӳ�� as a child and later enjoyed watching Warrior basketball games.  “I hope to be a productive member of the board, developing closer ties between �鶹��ýӳ�� and the agricultural community along the Central Coast,” he says. “Hopefully, I’m a small cog in furthering the mission of �鶹��ýӳ�� and Christian higher education.”
