It's a New Year... Meet Our New Team Members!

We couldn't be more happy than we are to announce that we have three new members on our Blackstone Group team!

If it wasn't for our loyal client base, we wouldn't have the opportunity to continue to grow and mature into the marketing research firm that really and truly puts the "service" in "full service."  We think you will come to agree with us that these three new team members fit right in with passionate take on research.

Without further ado...


Anthony (Tony) D'Andrea
Senior Associate

Tony has over 10 years of research experience in a wide range of methodologies, such as ethnography, surveying and hybrid methodologies.

Over his career, Tony has assisted clients in high-tech, higher education, business services, government, tourism and wellness industries in countries around the world, including Brazil, India, Ireland, Spain and the United States.

Tony's fluency in Portuguese and Spanish has been a valuable asset for conducting international, multicultural and subcultural research.

He has authored a number of notable publications concerning a wide range of issues, including cultural globalization and research methodologies.

Tony has a PhD in Anthropology from the University of Chicago, a BBA in Business and MBA studies in Marketing and Strategy.

Snigdha has extensive experience in conducting and managing survey research for a wide range of clients, including government, not-for-profit and education.

She has provided deep qualitative and quantitative research insight for such notable organizations as the Metro Chicago Information Center (MCIC) and the University of Chicago Survey Lab.

Snigdha is well-positioned to tackle complex multicultural issues and research facing organizations across the world.  (Helps that she is fluent in Hindi and Urdu too!)

And last, but not least...


Jay Joshi
Business Development Assistant

If you've been one of our clients for awhile, you might remember Jay from a few years back.  He was one of our former interns, and we are certainly happy to have him back in the Blackstone family!

Beyond his work with Blackstone, Jay has notable sales and marketing experience working with Fortune 100 companies, including T-Mobile and Nissan.  His client-side experience will surely be an asset in identifying the best fit for your team's needs.

Jay has a BS in Finance with a focus on Marketing from the University of Illinois Chicago.

If you want to reconnect with Jay or get to know him for the first time, please contact him at jay.joshi@bgglobal.com or via his LinkedIn account (seeing a trend??).

Please join us in welcoming these promising new members to our team!


For the love of research...
