Navigating the Dallas tech world is my day job, but the silence of West Texas and the shoreline of White Rock Lake are where I find my perspective. I spend much of my time documenting the quiet rhythms of the lake, just steps from my door.

For me, photography is about slowing down enough to see the art in the everyday.
