Steve Miller built his investing perspective as a second-generation entrepreneur, growing up around his father's bootstrapped office-supply business Quill Corporation that scaled nationally and was sold to Staples, giving him firsthand experience with sales-driven execution and large strategic exits rather than coming from banking or consulting.
