Chris Miller is the Senior Vice President of Sustainability at Aspen One, where he leads the company’s efforts to embed sustainability into business strategy and operations—while using Aspen’s voice, influence, and resources to help shape more just and sustainable systems beyond the company.

Prior to joining Aspen One, Chris spent 14 years at Ben & Jerry’s, where he was the Global Social Mission Director and a member of the company’s executive leadership team. He led the integration of Ben & Jerry’s progressive values into day-to-day operations, including sustainability strategy, values-led sourcing and supply chain development, and the company’s unique, award-winning model of corporate activism.

Before Ben & Jerry’s, Chris led sustainability efforts at Seventh Generation, a leader in non-toxic household and personal care products. His earlier work includes directing Greenpeace USA’s national climate campaign in the early 2000s and serving on the staff of Congressman Bernie Sanders.

Chris splits his time between the Roaring Fork Valley and Burlington, Vermont, where he lives with his partner Ashley, her 13-year-old son Walker, and their dog Hewie and cat Boo.

Michael Miracle

Director of Community Engagement

Michael Miracle, Director of Community Engagement
As Director of Community Engagement, Michael has what some of his coworkers describe as “the most nebulous job at the company.” On any given day, he could be working on traffic and transportation challenges, sitting on a mental-health steering committee, brainstorming ideas for future marketing campaigns, co-writing an op-ed about immigration policy, trying to move the needle on the Aspen area’s affordable housing conundrum, or working directly with local elected officials and government staff to find solutions for each of those problems and more. All of the work ties to Aspen Skiing Company's belief that a healthy, thriving community benefits everyone, including visitors to the resort.

Prior to joining the company, Michael spent almost 20 years as a magazine editor, first at Skiing Magazine and then at Aspen Sojourner.

Hannah Berman

Senior Sustainability and Philanthropy Manager

Hannah Berman, Senior Sustainability

Hannah Berman manages sustainability, philanthropy, and outdoor access programs. She helped pass ballot initiatives to increase teacher pay and support affordable housing in the Roaring Fork Valley. She is also the Executive Director of the Environment Foundation, which has donated more than $4.6 million since its inception to fight climate change, bolster clean energy at scale and policy level, and foster environmental stewardship.

In 2024, she became the youngest representative elected to Basalt Town Council. She serves as board chair for Mountain Family Health, which provides affordable healthcare to 20,000 patients in western Colorado, and was a 2022 national fellow at the Clean Energy Leadership Institute.

Her previous roles include a water lead-tester (recommendation: avoid the lead), cake baker (record: 16 lbs of butter), and environmental consultant (conclusion: not enough skiing included). She studied economics and environmental studies at Bowdoin College, with a minor in education.
