snow years
is a small book of poems dedicated to upstate New York, and all of the beautiful people whose lives entered mine during the time I spent there. I grew up spending time in the mountains of the Adirondacks and the Catskills, searching for swimming holes in the summer, and hiking snowy peaks in the winters. When I left D.C. to go to college, Hartwick was the perfect place to find myself ending up in. The school sits at the northern foothills of the Catskills. After graduating I moved to Brooklyn; rode the 2/3 train, stared up at the skyscrapers with wide-eyes, and tried to take in as much as possible every day. SNOW YEARS is my ‘thank you’ to that six-year period.
