kylemillerHello, I am Kyle Miller and am a MUD (Master of Urban Design) student at Ball State University. Classes are held in Downtown Indianapolis in an effort to immerse students in an urban environment. In addition to a full time student class schedule I work part-time with the City of Marion as an Assistant Planner where I am part of an in house effort to update the Comprehensive Plan. I graduated with an undergraduate degree in Urban Planning and Development from Ball State in 2009 which led me to my current fascination and studies of Urban Design.
