Lake Texoma and beyond

Captain, Thinker → Doer,
boss man —
building experiences on the water.

I lead a tight-knit team across hospitality and marine businesses at Lake Texoma. When the crew wins together, our guests feel it. Texoma Destinations and BigWater.co are my passion — creating a premium lake lifestyle through service that matters.

Family first. Water, sky, and the experiences that define us.

Who I Am

Family first.
Everything else is adventure.

I cherish my family and love my daughter. The water, the sky, travel — these are where we make memories. The experiences we have are what define us.

That's why I build businesses around creating experiences for others. When you see the world from different altitudes — helm, cockpit, underwater — you build better systems.

Adventure, to me, isn’t about risk.. it’s about being prepared enough to earn the moment.

— What matters most

The Businesses

Everything lives under Texoma Destinations & BigWater.co — a group of companies built around premium marine lifestyle and experience-based hospitality.

Texoma Destinations
Experience-based hospitality on and around the lake. Where people come to make memories, celebrate, and feel the difference a winning team makes.
TowBoatU.S.
On-water towing, salvage, and emergency response covering Lake Texoma and Bois d'Arc. When things go sideways on the water, this is the call.
Big Water Marine
Full-service dealership — Scout, Veranda, Highfield. Sales, service, and long-term relationships with owners who use their boats hard.
How I Operate
01

Risk Management

I develop safety frameworks and present at industry conferences on building systems that prevent bad outcomes before they start.

02

Internal Tooling

I build operational tools that actually get used — because practical systems beat theoretical ones every time.

03

Community

Lake Texoma is home, not just a market. From Paddle for the Battle to everyday decisions about how we show up — the community is the point.

04

Team First

A tight-knit crew that executes together creates a winning customer experience. I take pride in being "boss man" to people who show up and do real work.

"When the team wins, the guest feels it. That's the whole game."
— Operating philosophy
Right Now

Leading the Team

Building a crew that takes pride in service and executes the mission together.

Growing Texoma Destinations & BigWater.co

Expanding premium marine lifestyle and experience-based hospitality across Texoma.

Family Time

Making memories on the water, in the air, and everywhere in between with my daughter and family.

Let's have a conversation.

I'm selective — but always open to thoughtful outreach.
