Stefanie Miller, ISA AM, graduated cum laude with a degree in English/Art History from George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia, where her coursework allowed her to study at the National Gallery of Art, the Corcoran Gallery, The Renwick Gallery, The Hirshhorn Museum, The Freer Sackler Gallery, and many other notable institutions in Washington, DC. After graduating, she worked for a nationally known non-profit organization as a researcher. In this position she gained extensive knowledge of valuing antiquarian books as well as other antiques, porcelain, manuscripts, fine art, and collectibles. After moving to Missoula, Montana in 2013, she began work as a researcher and assistant to a noted local fine art appraiser. She has since completed the appraisal studies program through the College for Appraisers in California, taken the 15-hour national USPAP examination, passed the ISA Core Course in Appraisal Studies, the ISA Fine Arts Course and examination, and the ISA Antiques, Furnishings + Decorative Arts Course and examination. 

Her education and experience prepared her for starting her own independent appraisal business, Miller Appraisals, in 2015. This business allows her the creativity and flexibility to continue a lifelong passion for learning about fine art and antiques, while also providing clients with well-researched, thorough, and impartial appraisal reports.

While most of her business is focused in the Western Montana region, she does travel for appraisal projects in the surrounding states including Wyoming, Idaho, Washington, and beyond. She has the experience to meticulously appraise and inventory collections ranging from a few, to several thousand objects. Many of her appraisals comprise entire estates, so she has a wide range of expertise in residential contents including furniture, porcelain, silver, books, clothing, and decorative art. She also has considerable knowledge of appraising American art from Western artists of the 19th and 20th centuries.

All of her appraisal reports are written in compliance with the Uniform Standards of Appraisal Practice (USPAP).
