Howdy bdally-ga,

If you want to cut it (really) tight, you could catch the 7:36 AM "T" at
the Newton Station on the "Silver Line", as it will take around 24 minutes
to go from there, transfer to the "Red Line" at the "Downtown Crossing,"
and go on to the Kendall/MIT Station.  I'd go for the 7:23 or 7:27 AM "T"
at Newton to be safe.  This is on a weekday.

If you need any clarification, please feel free to ask.

Apologies, but the "Silver Line" link (the second one in my list of links) is
incorrect, and should have been the following one.

Apologies, some other slight corrections.

In general, there should be a train at the Newton Station at around the
following times:

- 7:22 AM
- 7:27 AM
- 7:32 AM

It should be every 5 minutes during the "Rush Hour Service" times which
includes the time of the day for your plans.

From there, as in my answer, it should take around 24 minutes to get to
your destination.
