Student Spotlight (CONT’D FROM PAGE 14)

ACME: Anything you’d like to say to Acme Corrugated Box as you move onto your next chapter? BREZE: I appreciated the warmth of everyone and the good energy overall. Everyone was so nice and welcom- ing. I’m especially grateful to all three supervisors I had – Annamarie, Heidi, and Helene. They did a great job of showing me the ropes when I started in their departments and helped me whenever I needed it. ACME: Is there anything you’d say to students considering internships, or to students considering Cristo Rey Philadel- phia High School? BREZE: I think it’s very important for students to have in- ternships because it gives them a glimpse into the profes- sional world, which can help them figure out their career paths and make more informed college decisions. Intern- ships make great additions to your resume, too, and can open doors. ACME: Any advice for students starting internships this summer or fall? BREZE: Try not to be nervous talking with the employees. If they know you’re an intern they’ll probably be kind and willing to help you out if you need it. Breze was awarded The Work-Study Professional Achievement Award from Cristo Rey Philadelphia High School. This award recognizes a graduating senior who has shown exceptional growth, leadership, and profes- sionalism both in school and at work. For more information, visit acmebox.com .

ACME: Tell us about some specific skills you took away from your time. BREZE: Starting my freshman year I began learning Am- tech Software, which handles scheduling and other needs for manufacturing companies. I also learned Excel and Salesforce. Personally, I learned how to become more so- cial and professional. And, of course, I learned how to put boxes together. ACME: What’s next for you? BREZE: I’m attending Chestnut Hill College starting this fall, as a Computer Science major. I hope to be able to intern and gain experience in the tech field. In the future I’d like to work in the tech field though I’m not sure doing what exactly. ACME: What made you choose Computer Science? BREZE: In my internship at Acme Corrugated Box, I espe- cially liked learning Excel and other software and seeing the ways technology contributes to the business world. ACME: Your final day with Acme Corrugated Box was just a few weeks ago. How did they send you off? BREZE: There was an event called Presentation Day where another Cristo Rey Philadelphia student and I pre- sented to the company about what we’d learned from work-study. Afterward they gave us donuts and gifts and I had a chance to say goodbye to everyone. It was kind of sad, but also felt good.
