About Santa Ken -

When I come to visit, you’ll be greeted by a truly authentic Santa. No artificial padding here—my “bowl full of jelly” belly and all of my facial hair are 100% real! But more importantly, my interactions with children and families are filled with genuine warmth and compassion. Kids will feel the magic of Christmas, and adults will be transported back to the wonder of their childhood as I bring the holiday spirit to life.

Working with children has been my passion for as long as I can remember. My journey began as a Boy Scout, mentoring younger scouts, and eventually earning the rank of Eagle Scout. Those experiences laid the foundation for a lifelong career dedicated to supporting and inspiring young people. For nearly two decades, I have worked full-time with children and adolescents with special needs, specializing in behavior management and creating inclusive, joyful experiences.

My love for playing Santa grew through community involvement, starting with my local fire company. I’ve had the honor of riding through neighborhoods as Santa and delighting guests at annual firehouse breakfasts each December. Watching families light up with holiday cheer and knowing I’m helping to “spread Christmas magic one smile at a time” has been a true blessing.

Beyond the red suit, I’ve served as a student ministry director at my local church and have extensive experience working with youth of all ages. Safety is a top priority for me. I hold current child abuse background checks, have been FBI fingerprinted, and maintain full liability insurance for all events. Additionally, my extensive training in child safety and abuse prevention ensures that every family I meet can rest assured they’re in caring, responsible hands.

Whether it’s a corporate event, a community celebration, or a private family gathering, I’m ready to make your holiday season magical and unforgettable. I look forward to being able to bring a new level of excitement to your “Christmas” event – contact me for more information or “Request a Visit“!!
