Loni Miller, EdD
Director of Elementary Education Program, Director of Reading Program
I grew up on a ranch outside of Raleigh, ND. My mother was a teacher and she inspired me to become one too. My career as an educator started in Rock Springs, WY, where I taught kindergarten through fourth-grade Title One Reading and Math, and eventually moved into the second-grade classroom. Coming home to North Dakota brought me to Bismarck, where I taught third-grade. I have been at the University of Mary since 2015.
