It is with great pride that we honor AB Rankin as Aleut’s 2025 Shareholder of the Year.
AB is a lifelong pillar of the Unalaska and Aleut communities, dedicating over 40 years of service as City Treasurer for the City of Unalaska where she assisted the City of Unalaska Finance Department in receiving the Government Finance Officers of America Certificate for Excellence in Financial Reporting. Her professionalism and commitment left a lasting legacy, recognized by KUCB upon her retirement.
Beyond her career, AB has given tirelessly to cultural and corporate leadership. She has served as a director of Ounalashka Corporation since 1986, including nearly two decades as Chair of the Board, and continues to guide the corporation with wisdom and integrity. She has also served on numerous committees and subsidiary boards, always working to strengthen opportunities for shareholders and protect our lands.
Her leadership extends into cultural preservation, including service on the Museum of the Aleutians Board, and various other non-profit boards such as Iliuliuk Family and Health Services, and the Unalaska Chamber of Commerce, and she continues to guide The Aleut Corporation as its respected parliamentarian.
AB is also a proud mother to her children, Denise and Brian Rankin, and Nana to Abby Jensen and Sasha Rankin, and her legacy of service and values lives on through her family and community.
Respected for her honesty, humility, and steadfast dedication, AB has helped build institutions, preserve our culture, and inspire generations of Aleut shareholders. Please join us in celebrating AB Rankin—a leader, culture-bearer, and this year’s Shareholder of the Year.
