Dillon Connolly Launches Zuk Fitness
First launched in 2019, Zuk Fitness has been part of the road to recovery for Dillon Connolly (USC MS '22). A NCAA All-American swimmer and top recruit at USC, Dillon studied engineering as a collegiate athlete and worked as a design engineer at an aerospace company following graduation. After a life-altering diving accident in 2014, Dillon realized how important adaptive tools and resources were to aiding his independence. He set out on a mission to help others with mobility impairments and applied his engineering and innovation skills to an entrepreneurial business venture, and Zuk Fitness was born. Dillon pursued his master's degree in entrepreneurship where he has combined his product-design experience with innovation and practical application. Zuk Fitness has built a community beyond fitness, it offers individuals positivity, motivation, and support.
