Miller was born to a pair of self-styled hippies in the heart of the White Mountains in Easton, New Hampshire, on October 12, 1977. He grew up on 500 acres in a house with no electricity or running water, and was homeschooled until the fourth grade. He learned to ski at three, and started skiing competitively at 11 when his parents divorced and his mother would drop him off at a ski school on Cannon Mountain while she worked (via Britannica).
There's no doubt Miller had a great run. After skiing professionally for 19 years, the skier had a career-ending crash during the 2015 World Championships in Beaver Creek, Colorado. He severed a hamstring, and although he underwent surgery for the injury, he officially retired in 2017. But he hasn't given up skiing. In 2019, the Olympic medalist, his pregnant wife, and four children headed to Big Sky, Montana, to the Big Sky Resort north of Yellowstone National Park. Miller took on a new role as the brand ambassador for the venue and also worked on its skiing programs and training camps. He and his family live in an upscale development in nearby Spanish Peaks in the shadow of the 11,166-foot Lone Peak, and split their time between Big Sky and Los Angeles (via AP).
