The Beginning with Santa Rick
Santa Rick first set his boots on the path towards a Santa career in 1968. He’s been perfecting his persona ever since. Passionate about representing the true spirit of Santa, he strives to bring hope and joy into the lives of children and adults alike.
A consummate professional, Santa Rick has instructed at several Santa schools where he consistently demonstrated and advocated professionalism and integrity in the Santa industry. In 2016, he founded his own school, the Northern Lights Santa Academy, with a goal of educating students for the monumental responsibility of being Christmas professionals. The Northern Lights Santa Academy has quickly developed a stellar reputation and become one of the largest Santa schools in the country, and the largest in the Southeast.
As the Santa for the Atlanta Braves and the Atlanta Falcons since 2013, Santa Rick is an ambassador of the Christmas spirit to thousands of fans each year. In 2016 Santa Rick was selected as the brand ambassador for an international video chat app making Santa easily accessible to families at home. Santa Rick not only serves clients throughout the United States, but has international clients as well. He appeared in Hong Kong during the 2018 season. When he’s not delighting children and adults, Santa Rick mentors other holiday professionals. He serves as an agent for his company, the National Santa Agency, which provides holiday professionals year-round for clients across the country.
