Top SchoolScott Tongue is a Lead VR Programmer and creative technologist with nine years building immersive XR experiences across medical, military, sports, industrial, art, and neuroscience domains. He blends hands-on engineering and product leadership—founding an indie studio, co-founding and leading technology at a location-based VR startup, and now developing curriculum-driven VR at ASU—while also teaching Unity and Unreal at the college level. Scott has shipped large-scale location-based platforms, volumetric medical viewers, and warehouse-scale VR sports/training systems, and he’s skilled in Perforce/Plastic pipelines, tooling and automation that accelerate team throughput. Notable for pragmatic pivots (saving a startup from a costly hardware mistake) and creating accessibility and hot-swap tracking solutions, he pairs technical depth with a designer’s eye for immersive UX. Based in the NYC area, he maintains a public portfolio of experimental installations and XR demos that demonstrate his cross-disciplinary approach.
