Title
[People] Contributor portrait images have placeholder alt text
Description
Two contributor portraits on the /people/ page have alt="WRITE ALT TEXT HERE"
shipped to production instead of real descriptions. Screen readers announce the
placeholder text to visually impaired users instead of useful information about
the contributors.
Affected contributors:

- Stalgia Grigg (Alumni section)
Evidence:
<!-- Kenneth Lim -->
<img alt="WRITE ALT TEXT HERE">
<!-- Stalgia Grigg -->
<img alt="WRITE ALT TEXT HERE">Steps to Reproduce
- Go to https://p5js.org/people/
- Locate Kenneth Lim (Mentors) or Stalgia Grigg (Alumni) portrait
- Right-click → Inspect Element, or run Lighthouse/axe audit
- Both
<img>elements showalt="WRITE ALT TEXT HERE"
Actual Behavior
Screen readers announce "WRITE ALT TEXT HERE" instead of a useful description.
Expected Behavior
Descriptive alt text with contributor name and role.
