HELLO, MY NAME IS…

HENRY ACEVEDO

Hello! My name is Henry Acevedo, and I graduated from Boyertown High School. I love learning about how things work, such as garage door openers and fire alarm systems! I am very excited to share more about me.

I am eager to find a part-time job where I can feel like I am helping others!

ABOUT ME

I have a natural talent for making people laugh and creating a welcoming, positive atmosphere wherever I go. I genuinely enjoy meeting new people and building connections. I’m also highly curious and hands-on when it comes to understanding how things work—especially mechanical systems. I take pride in noticing the details, whether I’m checking smoke alarms, inspecting fuse boxes, or making sure other safety features are functioning properly. It’s important to me that things run smoothly and safely, and I enjoy being the one to help make that happen.

EDUCATION HISTORY

  • Participated in the Boyertown High School newsroom, where I contributed to the daily broadcast by delivering the weather report—gaining experience in public speaking, teamwork, and on-camera communication.

  • Successfully completed both the Empowerment Lab and Executive Skills programs at Integrate for Good, building strong foundations in self-advocacy, decision-making, and personal organization.

  • Actively committed to continued leadership development through ongoing participation in Integrate for Good programs and community engagement opportunities.

VOLUNTEER/WORK HISTORY

  • Actively building my volunteer and teamwork skills through Integrate for Good by contributing to meaningful community service projects, including creating sleeping mats for individuals experiencing homelessness and decorating kindness rocks to spread encouragement and positivity.

  • These projects have helped me strengthen my sense of responsibility, attention to detail, and commitment to making a positive impact in the lives of others.

STRATEGIES FOR SUCCESS

  • When learning a new task, I learn best with a hands-on approach and visual demonstrations.

  • While I work, I like to listen to music.
  • Regular check-ins, movement breaks, and fidget toys help maintain my focus.
  • I benefit from small breaks throughout the day to stay focused
  • I like to share how I am feeling and what I am thinking, it is helpful to have defined place or time to share thoughts.
