Narrative:

Coming in at dusk, new job and new to the area. I was concentrating on checklist and smooth landing for our passenger. I realized when I flared for landing I was on the taxiway of runway 35R. I feel this condition can be prevented by being more familiar with the airport and raising one's situational awareness.
