About 

Mohammed Gueye studied at the Bernard and Anne Spitzer School of Architecture at City College. He comes from a Senegalese and Jamaican background and is a native-born New Yorker. He was raised in Co-op-City and currently resides in Mount Vernon, New York. He also sees himself as part of the Harlem community, as he previously attended the High School for Mathematics, Science and Engineering on City College campus. This year would make his 9th year being a resident and active participant of the Hamilton Heights community. Mohammed is incredibly invested in architecture, gardening, and social work. He believes “these three can come together to aid many of the systemic issues of a diversely growing city”. He finds issues of food deserts and nutritional literacy, systemic poverty and lack of healthcare can be directly attributed to the qualities of the architecture, social work and community gardens around them. He used these three in the last year working as president of the club, CCNY Green. In addition to gardening, he has a passion for graphic design and crafting publication serving as the Editor/ Graphic Designer for his High School Yearbook as well as the Editor of the rebooted Spitzer publication, informality . As of recently he has been dedicating a lot of time to film photography, documenting people , friends , landscapes and protest.
