Early life
Kiff was born the oldest of five boys in Grand Rapids, Michigan. His grandfather, Rev. Ralph Heynen, was a pastor at Pine Rest, a Christian mental institution in Cutlerville, MI. He had a radio broadcast where he would record his sermons in his study and they would be sent to radio stations across the country. Whenever Kiff's family would visit his grandparents, he made a beeline to his grandfather's study and played with the recording equipment. This is where he credits the beginning of his VO career, playing with his grandpa's recording rig.
Kiff attended and graduated from Calvin College, in Grand Rapids, MI with a degree in Communications Arts and Sciences.
