2024-2025 Student Clinic Director: Miles Gilbert

---

Miles Gilbert attended Colorado State University where he majored in English literature and graduated with honors. Driven by a desire to help people, he began working in harm reduction and public health in northern Colorado, increasing access and training to life-saving overdose medication and counteracting substance use disorder stigma. That desire propelled him to the University of Wyoming College of Law and the Defender Aid Clinic.

Through law school Miles has worked as a student attorney with the Defender Aid Clinic, a judicial extern in chambers of Alan Johnson, and as a summer associate with the Spence Law Firm. In every role, he has been a passionate advocate, diligent attorney, and persuasive storyteller.

As the student director of the Defender Aid Clinic, Miles has brought his passion for advocacy as a fierce defender of incarcerated people.
