![Meet the team](https://blog.dentally.organic.dev/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Meet%20the%20team.jpg?width=300&name=Meet%20the%20team.jpg)

Full name: Phillip Astle

Preferred name: Phil

Role: Senior Software Engineer

Tea or Coffee: Coffee!

*Phil started work at 18, straight after college, at Rolls Royce as a software developer. 16 years later, after** gaining experience in various languages and technology, Phil realised he’d only had two jobs at the age of 42 and his job was getting a little too easy. He decided he should see what else was out there so started looking for a new challenge in online/SAAS... and that's how he found Dentally!*

**Let's chat...**

**If you had to describe yourself in three words which would you use? **

Intuitive, sarcastic and helpful.

**What is the best advice you have ever received?**

You’ll regret the things you haven’t done more than the things you have done.

**What would we find you doing outside of Dentally?**

Recently, gaming or binging on a streaming site.

**What is your claim to fame?**

 I sent in a picture I drew to Take Hart and had it shown in The Gallery.

  

**The best things in life are…**

Never easy!

**I would never be seen without…**

My phone (I use it for paying for things).

**Tell us a random fact**

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is the longest word in the English dictionary.

  

**And finally, what do you love about Dentally?**

The modern, intuitive UI, the fact it’s in the cloud and the speed at which new functionality is delivered.
