Encino, Calif. – SAA is pleased to announce today the appointment of Jill Miller to our Board of Directors. Miller is the Director of Key Account Development for Modern Process Equipment, a family-owned business based in Chicago, Ill. that provides customers with grinding, conveying and process solutions.
SAA’s volunteer Board of Directors is made up of recognized leaders across many areas of expertise. They represent the broad diversity of our membership and contribute their time, talent, and energy.
“I was so well supported by SAA during my ankylosing spondylitis (AS) diagnosis several years ago that I was compelled to take this opportunity to give back to the AS Community and support the organization’s mission,” said Miller. “I’ve always been amazed at how SAA is able to support the needs of its community without government funding. I want to ensure its future success by supporting its fundraising and development efforts,” Miller added.
“Jill is a welcome addition to our dedicated Board of Directors,” said SAA’s CEO Cassie Shafer. “She has also been a friend to our community for quite some time serving as a co-leader for our Chicago area support group, and we’re thrilled that she is rolling up her sleeves to help us lead the fight for a cure,” Shafer added.
Miller earned a B.A in German and International Relations from Kent State University and has more than 20 years of business experience in sales and services roles.
