This experience gave him insight into the diverse ways people, both urban and rural, engage with politics.In 2023, Dillon transitioned to tracking state legislation, further deepening his understanding of how politics shapes policy. He has since worked on various political campaigns, including a local mayoral race and as a field director for labor unions in Montana. Each role has expanded his understanding of how communities across the state approach politics.Currently, Dillon works at Catalyst Montana, where he organizes around healthcare and economic justice issues.
