Biography
My name is Cristian Rosas. I am a young Mexican-American man. I use Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC). I have used AAC my whole life. I like to teach people about AAC. I want people to know I am smart and I can communicate. Since 2017, I have been making presentations at conferences. I talk about my experiences as an AAC user. In 2019, I started giving lectures to college classes of special education teachers. I give advice on how to teach students how to use AAC. I also enjoy making films about my life, assistive technology, and communication.
