  • Edgar ONeal, Board Member

    In 2012, Edgar relocated to Oklahoma and began working as a social worker in 2013, deepening his commitment to helping people through life’s most challenging moments. Around that same time, he discovered storm chasing—initially as a hobby, drawn to the power, beauty, and unpredictability of severe weather.

    In 2020, Edgar made the decision to pursue storm chasing full-time. During the 2023 and 2024 seasons, he chased with Team Dominator aboard the Dominator 3, gaining extensive experience in high-risk, high-reward environments. At the end of 2025, Edgar chose to return to solo chasing, continuing to document storms through a personal lens that blends adrenaline, reflection, and respect for the storm.
