Several years ago, Kris left the sunny shores of Hawaii with his family to pursue the American dream of building a successful business. His family set their sights on gold mining and for years has labored away, putting all their time, money, blood, sweat, and tears into their operation. Kris now intends to extend the scope of the fledgling Reaper Mining operation and prove that not only can he get gold, but he can locate it too. Since taking over as head of the family operation, Kris Kelly has longed to prove his legitimacy as a miner. Despite being knocked back again and again, Kris’ undying optimism and big dreams have kept the family moving forward.
