Hey, I'm Tommy 👋
Senior QA Engineer·Epic Games
Maker and tinkerer who can't resist taking things apart to see how they work. This is where I share the debugging notes, editor tricks, and side projects that came out of building real things.
A single thread connects everything I do: a decade of video programming and projection supervision for international live shows, deep dives into media-server technology at VYV, and now Virtual Production at Epic Games where I push Unreal Engine into territory that would have felt like science fiction ten years ago.
When I solve something hard, I write it down. No padding, no filler. Just the stuff that actually mattered.
