Meet Dillan Vancil

Greg and Dan talk with Dillan Vancil, candidate for Illinois's 17th Congressional District. The conversation dives into Dillan’s diverse background, from his leadership roles on multiple school boards, including serving as Vice President on one, to his entrepreneurial journey as the owner of a growing series of coffee shops (with the closest location currently in Chillicothe). Dillan shares how his experiences living in multiple states, working in blue-collar jobs, and running businesses have shaped his perspective on perseverance, self-motivation, and following your own path to success.

A father himself, Dillan says one of his driving motivations for running for Congress is to create an easier and clearer path to opportunity for his children and future generations. Drawing on his business experience, he discusses the challenges of navigating “red tape” regulations when building in different states and emphasizes the importance of fostering an environment where small businesses can thrive. As a business owner, Dillan understands the vital role employees and local entrepreneurs play in building strong communities and he actively invests his time and energy into supporting them.
