Can't even guess without better information. The pics of the bark and leaves doesn't tell us much about the tree.

Put LeafSnap on your phone and it will tell you.

According to PictureThis it's a Farkleberry, a species of blueberry that grows up to 23' tall. Does it get berries?

I have never noticed any berries, but this is the first year I noticed the small white flowers. I took the picture last week when we had all the rain. Shortly afterwards the ground beneath was covered with the flowers. It has been in my yard for over 30 years. I have not seen any other tree like this anywhere else near my home. But it does look a Farkleberry.

Farkleberry is by Steve. That's a pretty interesting find!

It doesn't work when taking a snap of the monitor (has those black lines through it)
