About

The Moorpark College Office of Student Life is headed by Dr. Kristen Robinson. 

An alumna of the Ventura County Community College District, Kristen played intercollegiate volleyball for the Ventura College Pirates before transferring to the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) to earn her Sociology degree. She continued with her education at California Lutheran University, where she received her Master of Science in Counseling and Guidance with an emphasis in College Student Personnel. Kristen spent 9 years working in student affairs for UCSB's Bren School of Environmental Science & Management before returning to the community college setting.

In her role as Student Activities Specialist, Kristen advises the Associated Students of Moorpark College, the campus's officially elected student government; aids the 50+ campus clubs and organizations in their operations; creates student development programs, like MC L.E.A.D.S.; and implements campus-wide events and activities such as Commencement and Constitution Day.

In addition to advocating for students and providing mentorship and personal development opportunities, her interests include visiting California's historical landmarks, scrolling through images of famous cats on Instagram, meandering through any type of gift shop, and challenging herself on some of the local hiking trails.
