After leaving his hometown of Albuquerque, New Mexico to pursue a career in film composition, Miller began studying at the Grove School of Music and the UCLA Extension film-scoring program.[2] Early in his career Miller assisted composer Mark Waters on numerous Disney TV episodes, and worked as an orchestrator and conductor for Academy Award-winning composer Mychael Danna.[3]
