Lisa Robertson began her role as the Director of Sport, Community Engagement & Athlete Development at the University of Regina in September of 2017.

Prior to taking on the role at the U of R, Robertson most recently worked as an Associate Director at the Olympic Oval in Calgary and was responsible for leading marketing, communications, events and competition teams. During her two years at the Oval, Robertson worked to align with the five-year strategic plan and chaired the organizing committee that managed the 2016 ISU World Cup Short Track Speed Skating competition. Robertson also led the Oval through a brand refresh and assisted in developing a new governance model for the teams she oversaw.

Before working at the Olympic Oval, Robertson spent 18 years in the athletic department at the University of Calgary. Much of Robertson's career with the Dinos was focused on fund development, including time as the director of development from 2012 through 2015.

Robertson played five years with the University of Calgary women's basketball program from 1990 to 1995 while earning a Bachelor of Arts degree. Robertson was a part of a Canada West champion Dinos squad in 1991, was a Canada West first-team all-star in 1994 and was named a second-team Canada West all-star on three other occasions. 

Lisa is in her second term as the President of Equestrian Canada. She and her husband Chris live in Regina with their daughter (Sophia) and son (Jack).
