Kinsey graduated from the University of Maryland, College Park in 1975 with honors in mathematics.^[2] She returned to the University of Maryland, College Park for graduate study, completing a Ph.D. there in 1984. Her dissertation, Pseudoisotopies and Submersions of a Compact Manifold to the Circle, was jointly supervised by Henry C. King and Walter Neumann.^[3]

Kinsey is the author of mathematics textbooks that include:

• Topology of Surfaces (Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics, Springer, 1993)^[4]
• Symmetry, Shape, and Space: An Introduction to Mathematics through Geometry (with Teresa Moore, Springer, 2002)^[5]
• Geometry and Symmetry (with Teresa Moore and Efstratios Prassidis, Wiley, 2010)^[6]
