Community Champion Spotlight | July 2025 - Meet Josh!

[Bri]

The Zoom Community Champion Program was created to recognize and reward the outstanding work done by Zoom experts within the Zoom Community. This month, we want to spotlight one of our Zoom Community Employee Champions, @Josh_Stanley. Josh joined the community in October 2021 and has been a Community Champion since March 2025🥇

What do you like best about being a Zoom Community Champion? 

I like that the questions that the Zoom Community users ask really challenge me. Sometimes it forces me to put myself in their shoes and understand their use case in order to be able to effectively answer their question. This in turn helps me to be a better AI Specialist with Zoom and understand our product as well as how it works for customers in a better way. We all learn from every question we read (whether we answer it or not) 🤓

How would you describe the Zoom Community in a few words? 

In one word: "Helpful" 🤝

What is your favorite Zoom product and why?

Custom AI Companion. I think customers (and even many Zoom Employees) are just starting to understand the power of a personalized and customized AI Solution. Leveraging company data sources in knowledge collections, custom dictionaries, custom meeting summary templates (plus much more) to improve the quality and value of the AI output is incredibly powerful today ✨

What's a fun fact you'd like to share?

I have a YouTube channel I post regularly to and have over 60+ short videos on how to more effectively leverage Zoom AI Companion and Custom AI Companion. I try my best to focus on real business problems and use cases that our customers have and try to show in 5 minutes or less how we can solve them with AI Companion 🎥
