Lea Miller
Lea is a former accounting professional, with a B. S. degree in accounting from the University of South Florida. For twenty-five years, she worked in a corporate setting for businesses selling aviation/marine fueling and environmental services as a division controller and branch manager.
A few years ago, she and her husband decided to leave suburbia and head for the horizon. However, they hadn't saved quite enough to be able to stop working entirely, so they took their scuba diving hobby and turned it into a profession. Now, as dive instructors, they are traveling the world and enjoying the sights, both above and below the water. Visit their travel blog at Where Are Rick and Lea?

Now that her lifestyle allows more time, she is exploring a new adventure - polishing her skills as a writer and giving her creativity room to flourish. After many years preparing reports and analyses for her employers, she has begun to develop a portfolio of articles online.
