    About this ebook

    A Voice in the Downpour is a smaller collection of poems. Each piece deals in some way with the desire for perfection. The chaos of a moment in time as it passes, and the process of listening to the hopeful voice that emerges in the midst of the storm.

When i'm not taking classes toward my Bachelors: you can find me reading, playing my guitar or hanging out with my small dog. I was raised in Upstate New York but currently reside in Northern California.
