Developing our next generation of leaders
While Kyle Skye grew up in a football family—his grandfather was the first African American athlete for Valparaiso University—music has also always been an important part of his life.
Today, Skye is a musician, recording artist, and former Gopher football player who is the founder of Bay Laurel, an entertainment label and lifestyle brand, and the Bay Laurel Fund, a nonprofit that sponsors free arts and athletic camps for inner-city youth in Minneapolis.
