Kristin Hinton, M Ed.

I primarily work on the Fair Lab's Autism study administering neuropsychological and cognitive assessments to children. In addition, I assist in curriculum design and program development for our outreach and education program. I completed my Masters in Education Research and a Masters in Creative and Performing Arts, Media, and Learning, from the University of Newcastle in Australia. After years of teaching music in a therapeutic setting for children with differing levels of ASD, I decided to combine my love of education, music, and psychology into a research agenda. My research focused on the potential utility of a music program for mainstream school environments to specifically engage and equip ASD children through increasing their social, emotional and behavioral functioning based on the principles of neurological music therapy and music therapy.
