Lillie Millan, co-owner of Millan Enterprises, has been at Leo’s side since the company’s inception in 1999. She got her start in Clarksville in 1995 after leaving her hometown of Orange County, California to follow her husband here to Fort Campbell. Her involvement in the company had always been in the accounting department, then molded into heading up design, and finally taking a step up as Co-Chief Member in order to further support the company’s mission.
Her attention to detail was crucial for her time heading the accounting department. As the team grew, so did her interest in interior design. She became passionate about setting the company’s projects at a higher standard than the rest. Again, as the company grew and its mission expanded, her role was best suited officially as Co-Chief Member.
The company’s latest project, The Millan Center, is Lillie’s latest design venture. Her goal is to bring the feel of her roots in the West Coast without compromising the southern charm that Clarksville brings.
The newly started Millan Foundation is a testament to her and her husband’s faith and attitude to put people first. Beyond the Foundation, Lillie has dedicated her time to being on the APSU Candlelight Ball committee helping plan their annual, premier fundraising event.
Outside of work, Lillie enjoys spending time with her four kids and two grandchildren, traveling, listening to country music, playing pickleball, and exercising.
