Location
Dr. Miles received her Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Arlington in Operations and Supply Chain Management in 2008, and her Master’s degree in Management from the Georgia Institute of Technology in 1992. Prior to completing her Ph.D., she spent 25 years in the United States Army as a logistics officer. During her tenure as an Army Logistics Officer, she participated in the planning and execution of countless missions in support of both Global Wars on terrorism (Afganistan and Iraq). As such, she has moved everything from ice to trash, tanks to fuel, and people to boxes around the world via ship, cargo plane, pipeline, railroad, and truck.
Her experience is robust and certainly reflected in her research. She is keenly interested in ‘the greater good’, pursuing research that examines corporate accountability, the costs of efficiency, and, more recently, corporate taxes and executive compensation. She accomplishes research with the tenacity of an Army officer and the breadth of a scholar.
