From CEO to state employee, ‘next chapter’ for Tammy Miller includes learning and laser focus
FARGO — Tammy Miller has come a long way from a childhood in small-town North Dakota, helping out in her family’s general store, later working as a certified public accountant, starting a career at Border States Electric here, and eventually, becoming its chief executive officer.
In eight months, however, she leaves the private sector for a different venture — employment with the state of North Dakota as Gov. Doug Burgum’s next chief operating officer, or COO.
Burgum named Miller for the post in mid-June, prompting some to wonder whether the highly-successful CEOs, former and current, could work together without butting heads, and whether this move was designed to be a springboard for a future political career for Miller.
