Marquita Miller app for iPhone and iPad

In 2005, Marquita Miller put her feet to faith and jumped head first into the world of entrepreneurship. After working for Fortune 500 companies as an accountant for years, Miller knew her time to shine had arrived. The decision proved to be providential: Miller resigned from the corporate ladder and branched off into the world of small business ownership.

During those first years, Miller relied on her faith to help her survive the trials and tribulations of beginning a small business. She shaped herself into more than just an entrepreneur—she became a Faithpreneur, a person who follows the path to entrepreneurship by first following the path to God.

Today, Miller owns and operates Five Star Tax and Business Solutions from her headquarters in Kansas City, Missouri. Her tax service business focuses on a diverse menu of business solutions, including tax planning and preparation, accounting and payroll, startup planning, financial and performance evaluation planning, and revenue generation. From the business inception as a part-time hobby in 2009 to its current position as a local marketplace leader, Miller has sought to focus her services on small- and medium-sized businesses. Miller fosters entrepreneurship in others, and her business places special emphasis on services for startups.

Millers business sense and commitment to her faith and values has catapulted her to the forefront of Kansas Citys booming tax service scene, and the community has taken notice. KC Business magazine named Miller as one of Kansas Citys 2010 Rising Stars and as one of the metros 2011 Influential Women, and Five Star Tax and Business Solutions has been nominated for Small Business of the Year in the metro. In addition to the honors, Five Star Tax and Business Solutions has been certified as a woman-owned and minority-owned business. A true entrepreneur, Miller is in the process of expanding her company into new markets across the United States.

Miller holds a Bachelors of Science in accounting and management from Park University and a Master of Business Administration from the Keller Graduate School of Management. A Kansas City native, Miller has accomplished her dreams and beyond while also serving as a wife, mother, daughter, mentor, woman of God, active church leader, educator, speaker, radio show host and board member in multiple organizations. Miller has stretched the limits of time to complete her latest accomplishment as author of Faithpreneur: God is Not an Agent for Your Failure.
