Before that, he served as the Assistant Dean of Students and Associate Director for Stanford University's Centers for Equity, Community and Leadership.

Obleton earned a Doctor of Education degree in Organization Change and Leadership from the University of Southern California, and a Master of Arts degree in Public Administration and a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, both from Kennesaw State University.
