Kent A. Roberson (born 1985) is an American politician who is currently a member of the Maryland House of Delegates from District 25. He was born in Memphis, Tennessee and graduated from Frederick Douglass High School. He later attended Ball State University, earning a bachelor’s and master’s degree in political science in 2002 and 2007, and the Wesley Theological Seminary, where he earned a Master of Divinity degree in 2003.
Roberson first got involved in politics during high school in 2002, working as a student page for the Maryland House of Delegates. In 2013, he started work in the Maryland General Assembly mailroom. After graduating, Roberson worked as an intern for U.S. Representative Albert Wynn, later serving as a senior government relations manager for the Corn Refiners Association and the vice president of the Prince George’s County Parent Teacher Student Association.

In 2018, Roberson was elected to the Prince George’s County Democratic Central Committee for District 25.

In 2022, Roberson unsuccessfully ran for the Prince George’s County Board of Education, losing to small business owner Lolita Walker.
