About us
We are in pursuit of advancements for the blind and visually impaired community.
Red Rolling Case LLC is the brainchild of founder Kim A. Miller. Not wanting those experiencing sight loss to suffer from the myriad of eye diseases and impairments, Kim sought to alleviate the sense of helplessness and the frustrations associated with sight transition. This desire led her to create a full-service corporation dedicated to pursuing advancements for the blind and visually impaired community.
Paying homage to her experience of homelessness, Kim dedicated and named her company after her little red rolling case, which contained all her worldly possessions at the time. She used her little red rolling case to teach and educate her circle of friends and family in order to regain control over her life. Using her red rolling case and the visions of the white with dark dots, Ms. Miller formed the first two planks in the bridge of communication between the sighted and non-sighted communities. Red Rolling Case LLC is now the home of the Blind Awareness Ribbon (BAR), the SYGHT Project “No SYGHT All Vision,” and the Blind Awareness Audio Alert Tone (PSA), just to name a few. These first platforms are meant to help the blind and visually impaired community stay together, get better, and move forward at all stages of sight loss.

This all began with a personal experience.
Following in the long line of Caribbean natives to the United States, Kim A. Miller and her family settled in the Flatbush section of Brooklyn, New York, after leaving Barbados, W.I. This move fostered a love of both her hometown as well as academics. As noted, her love of academics led her to her first job, a career at the New York City Board of Education, High School Division, as an Office Administrator to Senior Level Department Heads of the High School Division, where she worked as a student and then went on to be hired for ten years as an Office Administrator—having been officially trained with the new innovative technology of its day, Microsoft Office, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and email. Ms. Miller then took her newfound office skills to the fashion industry. Enrolling in the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT), she received her first degree in Fashion Merchandise Management. Ms. Miller went to work for many recognized international brands such as Liz Claiborne, London Fog Kids, Avirex, and Jones NY just to name a few.
Not finding the fashion industry as fulfilling as she would like, Ms. Miller, no stranger to adventure and spontaneity, seized on an opportunity to be the representative of the USA and Canada working out of Paris, France, for a European-based hotel brand, which allowed her to maximize her degree in Fashion Merchandise Management on the look and feel of each establishment as stated in each contract.
Returning stateside, Ms. Miller left the world of international corporations and found what would become her lifelong interest in communications. working for a major communications organization. Tragically, about this time, Ms. Miller started to lose her sight to Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP). Due to the erosion caused by this impairment, Kim does not possess periphery, nocturnal vision, hand-eye coordination, depth perception, or a color pallet. With no education or information about her condition, she soon found herself homeless living in the subway with only a little red rolling case. When she got off the train, little did she know that her ordinary life had come to an end and her extraordinary journey would then begin.
Red Rolling Case LLC. And The SYGHT Project are born out of a necessity to reclaim and maintain a standard of life that was being taken due to the erosion of sight loss.
Receiving assistance from the Commission for the Blind and Visually Impaired (CBVI) of New Jersey, she formed lifetime relationships with counselors, teachers, and mentors who would continue to inspire and encourage her growth and vision. Intensive rehabilitation included training on accessible technology, speech-prompted technology, independent living skills, and mobility training.
Mastering the tools of living a successful independent lifestyle within the blind and visually impaired community allowed her to enroll in Rider University, where she graduated Suma Cum Laude with her second degree in Intrapersonal Relationships with a minor in Speech and Written Communications.
Ms. Miller’s breathtaking journey has positioned her to be the voice of the blind and visually impaired community. With this in mind, she founded Red Rolling Case LLC and The SYGHT Project.
