Meet Reggie
Running with the vision to preserve, support, and protect District 31.
Regina Miller was given the nickname “Reggie” by her father, who passed away when she was a young girl.
She was raised by a single mother with very meager means after her father passed away. Her childhood summers and weekends were spent earning extra money to help her family. At the age of 9 years old, Reggie had steady work babysitting the neighborhood kids and her first part-time job at the age of 14 years old. Miller is married to her college sweetheart, and they raised their two children in the area. Reggie enjoys gardening, photography, and traveling. She and her husband are members of Trinity Episcopal Church.
Miller began serving as Van Buren Township Trustee in 2012 and has been elected to three consecutive terms.
She has served as the board liaison for both the Senior Endowment Committee and the Elections Committee. Previously, Miller served as the former Vice Chair of the Public Safety Committee, Executive Director of the National Strawberry Festival and Vice President of the Belleville Downtown Development Authority. Miller is a member of the League of Women Voters. She has volunteered for two homeowners associations serving in different roles, and was a former Savage School volunteer in the resource room. She also volunteers for the Salvation Army annual holiday kettle drive. During Reggie Miller’s first term in office she donated one year’s salary to the local schools, the Parks and Recreation Committee, and to the Belleville Area Council for the Arts.
