Josh Anglesea - Community Spotlight

My journey with Microsoft Business Applications started as an end user in 2010 for a company in the UK with version 2.60 of Navision. My curiosity to expand my knowledge in order to enhance user experiences drove me to joining the partner channel, where I spent time as a support consultant. After earning my stripes, I was ready to take on project implementation work and haven't looked back. I am currently working as a consultant for the Business Central team at Xpedition, a Gold Microsoft Dynamics partner based in the UK. My role here is great as I can enjoy both the functional and the technical use of the product.

It's been a pleasure to be involved in such a plethora of projects and industry focuses during my career thus far. I didn't study a technical subject in my higher education so building up an understanding of the "bigger picture" within the technology stack has often been a steep learning curve. This is where the community input from others has helped me so much. Having topics or scenarios broken down or sample code provided has helped me greatly. Given that community resources have helped me so much I want to get involved. 2020 to present day has seen me involved in a number of initiatives, whether that be the community forum, webinars/virtual events or my blog site - https://joshanglesea.wordpress.com/

Outside of software I am a father to a young son so spending time with him is very important - 2nd child is on the way . I am also a big football fan . I spend many hours watching games, highlights or attempting to play.   

"Without the Dynamics Community input I've absorbed over the years I wouldn't be the IT professional I am today. I hope that by helping other Dynamics Community members I can make a difference to businesses and show how good the toolsets available to us really are."
