Sophomore business owner making the most of unique learning experiences
Sean Miller did not come to Millikin University with his sights set on becoming a "tech" guy or owning his own business, but two years into his college experience, the sophomore finance and management information systems double major from Hope, Ind., can boast both.
At the beginning of the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, Miller was unsure what to do with his new schedule after Millikin, like many institutions, sent students home to resume the spring semester online. Noticing that his church needed help with virtual sermons and different video productions, he created .
"It gave me the opportunity to learn about video editing. I had a camera that I had opened for the first time and was like 'let's figure out how to do this,'" Miller said.
The business has blossomed into more than Miller ever thought it would be. Besides his church, he now has real world clients that request his services. Among his clients is Millikin's Tabor School of Business, where he produces videos spotlighting faculty and students.
Miller explained, "It's turned into something that I didn't even imagine when I started it up, but it's taught me a ton. It's really just a hobby that turned into a business."
