Matthew Klein   –  Texas A&M University


What are your research interests?

My research interests include play-based interventions in family contexts for children with autism. I am interested in parental support and involvement for play as well. 

Why are you part of the RISE grant?

I am part of the RISE grant because it gives me the opportunity to work with top scholars in my field to research interventions to improve the lives of families. 

What is something you are passionate about?

I love being in nature. I take every opportunity I get to go out to the mountains or the beach and spend time in nature.
