Most college students are wary of the line that separates work and play. However, some GW entrepreneurs traverse it purposefully, just like they bypass the Thursday night waiting line at Lulu’s.

Around here, one might say he has not had the typical “GW experience.” Then again, Heyl isn’t a typical student. He is a world class K-1 kayaker, a […]
