While teaching, Campillo was simultaneously enrolled in the Master's degree program at University of Nevada, Las Vegas, earning the degree at night.

After completing his two-year tenure with Teach for America, Campillo returned to Cambridge to attend Harvard Law School, where he earned his law degree.[4] Campillo joined the international law firm O’Melveny & Myers in Los Angeles that fall.[6] Campillo temporarily left the firm to join the 2016 Hillary for America campaign in the Brooklyn, New York headquarters, working in the operations department during the Primary and General Elections.[4]

Campillo returned to O'Melveny & Myers after the campaign and moved home to San Diego to join the San Diego City Attorney’s office as a prosecutor in June 2018.[7] There, he prosecuted drunk driving and some violent crimes, as well as facilitating nonviolent defendants into drug diversion programs. Additionally, he worked in San Diego’s flagship Gun Violence Restraining Order (GVRO) Unit, where he secured GVROs to take the firearms out of the hands of people who posed a danger to themselves and their communities.[4] In August 2022, Campillo married Nadia Farjood,[8] a fellow San Diego-raised attorney whom he met during his time at O'Melveny.
