Ben and Sharon Persón have been on staff with Kingdom Air Corps since the summer of 2023. Ben’s responsibilities are in facilities maintenance and construction. Sharon engages with the community of mothers and children helping to bond the families that live at and pass through KAC. The Persóns have four young children – Daniel, Abigail, Anna, and Moriah – who add to the noise around the Ranch and are very excited to be a part of this close-knit community.

Both Ben and Sharon were born and raised in Alaska. Ben comes from Fairbanks and has been working in construction most of his life. He enjoys engaging in manual labor and outdoor activities, especially when there is a friend to share them with. Sharon comes from Unalaska and has grown up in a commercial fishing family. Since getting married, her time is primarily filled with the responsibilities of a wife and mother, but when she can she enjoys creating beauty with her handiwork. Her primary craft of choice is sewing.
