A member of both the Utah and Colorado Bars, as well as the El Paso and Douglas County (Colorado) Bar Associations, and Colorado Women’s Bar Association, Mariah Dylla Gardiner also clerked for an administrative law judge in the U.S. Department of the Interior. At various times, Mariah has worked alongside both appellate and felony attorneys on difficult constitutional defense issues and she has handled cases in many courts, all the way up to the U.S. Supreme Court. That is why she is more than qualified for her latest position, as an associate in the family law department at Black & Graham, P.C. in Colorado Springs, Colorado.

high school, she published an article for the prestigious Concord Review, but that was just the
beginning.Mariahis now fluent in French, in part because she earned an undergraduate degree in
French from Portland State University, cum laude. She eventually earned her law degree from the
