Dillon St. Bernard Biography

Dillon St. Bernard is a Gen Z social impact strategist, digital content expert, and Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree.

St. Bernard founded Amplify Pledge, a network of creative changemakers, influencers, and brands, who make social impact impossible to ignore. Amplify Pledge houses efforts such as Young People Address the Nation, the Webby Award-winning series that is home to the historic annual "Youth Response to the State of the Union.”

St. Bernard founded Team DSB, a creative collective supporting the digital communications and cultural strategy needs of purpose-driven brands, organizations, and creators who ignite movements. Since launching in 2021, Team DSB has worked with over 30 purpose-driven brands and organizations. With most of the work being focused on elevating civic engagement and climate justice, St. Bernard and his team have mobilized over 1.5 million people to take action.

St. Bernard led digital communications strategy for movements that have organized over one million people in the streets and garnered billions of impressions. These efforts include the historic September 20, 2019 US Climate Strikes (which helped shift the national conversation around climate justice), March On for Voting Rights, Earth Day Live, and #VoteWithUs.

The journey that started for him as a 13-year-old content creator has led him to develop his superpower: helping purpose-driven creatives, brands, and organizations effectively amplify stories that shift culture through high-impact creative campaigns.

St. Bernard’s work is centered on elevating young, multicultural, and LGBTQ+ folks, and he is unapologetic about using media as a tool for social justice. He graduated from The New School with a Journalism + Design degree.
