Kevin Miller
San Francisco
Hey Everyone!
My name is Kevin Miller and I graduated from Georgetown University in 2013. I am originally from Daytona Beach, FL and have many fond memories of growing up in the Sunshine state. At Georgetown, I played point guard for Georgetown's club basketball team, I was a member of the Entrepreneurship Fellowship on campus and I was a member of the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity. Outside of school, I love to go boating, skiing, wake boarding, anything water related, really. I also enjoy working out and spending time with my best friends. Basketball is my favorite sport and my favorite teams are the Georgetown Hoyas & the Orlando Magic.
Following graduation, I joined a 12 person team at MessageMe (True ventures, a16z, social + capital partnership funded company) to help out with marketing and user acquisition. Several months down the road, MessageMe was acqui-hired by Yahoo! and following that acquisition of our core engineering talent, I found a job at Google doing Adwords Sales. I spent two fantastic years at Google in account management (farming role) as well as New Business Sales (hunting role). I feel that these two paradoxical experiences within sales have uniquely helped to cultivate necessary skills that will serve me well in my future business endeavors.
Most recently, I made the tough decision to quit Google and follow my dream of becoming a talented growth marketer. To assist with cultivating these skills, I am currently enrolled in Tradecraft which is an in-person, immersive training program for growth marketing. The program has been designed by industry-leading experts to ensure that graduates exit with both the depth and breadth of knowledge needed to make meaningful contributions at a high-growth startup. Tradecraft partners with startups to give members opportunities to work on important projects and gain hands-on experience.
Overall, my desire to become a technology entrepreneur stems from my I love of creating new products/services that elevate the quality of life for those who surround me.
I'd love to chat with you if my career path is of interest or if you simply have general questions. Please reach out at kevin.miller421@gmail.
