Englewood, Ohio – Andrew Miller, Miamisburg resident and President/Owner of Miller Network Innovations in Beavercreek, was inducted into the Miami Valley Career Technology Center (MVCTC) Hall of Fame on Thursday, October 6, 2016, during the All Advisory Dinner. Miller, a 1998 graduate of Eaton High School, attended the Computer Technology Tech Prep program at MVCTC.

 

After completing the MVCTC Computer Technology Tech Program, Andrew went on to Wright State University earning a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Computer Technology.  Besides being president and owner of Miller Network Innovations, Andrew is also the owner of a successful pizza restaurant.  In 2014, he purchased The Don's Pizza in a landmark Greenville, Ohio, location.  Then, in 2016, he opened a communications and security product distribution, Vendor Discounters in Dayton, Ohio.   These investments are proving to be very successful for Andrew.  The vision he has for business is extraordinary, and his friendliness and creativity have made him successful in all of his ventures.

 

Andrew has served as the President of Professional Referral Exchange, a member of the Far Hills Masonic Lodge, a member of the Order of the Eastern Star, a member of Microsoft Partners, a member of Sales Best Practices, a member of Entrepreneurs of Dayton, and a member of IT Focus Expert Group. He has demonstrated the importance of career technical education by expanding his education and employment in the career field he studied at MVCTC.  Andrew excelled as a student at MVCTC in both the classroom and in his Business Professionals of America experiences.  He truly is an excellent representative of career technical education and MVCTC.

 

Andrew shared the following about her MVCTC education, “MVCTC provided the perfect balance preparing us for college and entry level positions within our career fields.  Attending MVCTC gave me the ability to enter my first Technician job after high school graduation, which also paid for a large portion of my college education. Value this opportunity; many apply and only a few are selected.”

 

The ten new MVCTC Hall of Fame members received a special crystal award presented to them by MVCTC Superintendent Dr. Nick Weldy and Director of Instruction Mrs. Rhonda Phillips at a dinner meeting attended by over 350 program advisory members. Their portraits will be displayed in the school and their names will join the other 49 names engraved on a perpetual Hall of Fame plaque in the student activity center. MVCTC Hall of Fame members are inducted every five years from nominations that come from educators, family members, business, and employers. Mrs. Cathy Hutton, Northmont Area Chamber of Commerce Director; Mr. Eddie Mowen, Editor for the Register-Herald, and Ohio Representative Jeff Rezabek judged the Hall of Fame nominations this year.

 

Dr. Nick Weldy, MVCTC Superintendent, stated “We are proud to honor our returning alumni who have been so successful after leaving the Miami Valley Career Technology Center! Their former instructors provided a firm foundation to assist them in building careers that have blossomed. I appreciate the fact that all of the inductees returned to campus from across the United States to participate in the ceremony and show their dedication to our current mission of educating students to be career and college ready. They serve as inspiring role models for our current students. I congratulate each of our inductees and wish them the best of luck in their quest for continued success.”
