Michael Ryan Kelly was born to former New York State's District Attorney Ryan P. Kelly and Dr. Elsie M. Harris, a premiere geneticist with the Hopwell Foundation, although he spent the bulk of his youth rebelling against his parents and spent more times on the streets of New York rather than primary school. To Mike's credit, he didn't become lost to the criminal element and instead chose to carve a path being the knowledge base. He made it his business in his childhood to know everything he could about the neighborhoods, often times referred to as "MK" or the "Brain" to the kids he hung with. | Michael Ryan Kelly was born to former New York State's District Attorney Ryan P.

During his early teen years, Mike and his brother Sean, along with their friend Ben Whitecastle, trespassed onto a game preserve to run a mock marine exercise. Unbeknownst to them, the entered into an area where a pack of Cetti Wolves had been imported and unknowingly threatened a litter of cubs. The trio were nearly mauled before the Preserve Warden and a group of wilderness rangers arrived in time to resolve the conflict without harming anyone. Once their injuries were dealt with, the three boys were given an opporunity to intern with the rangers as part of their probation for trespassing. They accepted, finding the experience both rewarding and helped shape their lives. Ben left after the probation period was over. Sean and Mike remained, spending the rest of their teen years working as Rangers on game preserves throughout Earth and the Sol System. | |||
Mike realized along the way that he needed to find out what it was in this life he wanted to do. His dad made his mark in the legal system, and his mom excelled in science, by the time Mike turned sixteen his older brother Sean was already in Starfleet Academy working towards strategic operations, and he found himself torn between his need to know to his impulsive mechanic nature (first on early 20th Century cars to his ultimate passion, motorcycles). He liked the idea of going into Engineering, but he also wanted sometime that complimented his desire to "know" as well as build on his outdoor training, lending itself to something within the tactical and Intelligence communities. | |||
By the time Mike turned eighteen, he had turned his grades around and managed to finish within the top 15 of his class. He signed up for Starfleet and still torn, plunged himself into a nightmarish schedule to pull the impossible: a double degree in Engineering and Strategic Operations. He almost burned out in his third year, running on as little sleep possible while keeping his grades as high as possible (the competition between the brothers Sean and Michael Kelly is well known, as Sean made Lieutenant faster than any graduate possible in the capacity of serving as the Ivanoch's Chief Tactical Officer). | By the time Mike turned eighteen, he had turned his grades around and managed to finish within the top 15 of his class.
