About the Contributors
Tabassum Ahmed, Photography Editor
Tabassum Ahmed is a junior at Townsend Harris High School. She aspires to pursue a career in sonography or pediatric health. In her free time, you can find her on the track leading her team as captain or listening to all kinds of music (mainly Malcolm Todd). Tabassum has always had a passion for photography being able to capture moments, tell stories, and express emotions without words. Her favorite Classic piece she has worked on has been creating and taking photos for FON 2025. In general, she always loves watching the College Videos for the seniors at the end of the school year.
Shaw Williams, Photography Editor
Shaw is a rising senior, and he hopes to get into the marketing and communications field while learning about his Jamaican and Japanese heritage. In his free time, he loves to bring his camera with him to his adventures. His favorite Classic piece he ever worked on was taking photos during FON, as there were so many positive and pure emotions in every shot. Seeing people bond over music, dance, and culture was a great experience to see and to be a part of. His favorite Classic piece made by others is the “ADMITTED” series, as it truly gives Harrisites a chance to learn from the experiences of their peers, while also giving them the chance to learn about each other.
