Casey Courneen - CEO, President and Founder Blackstone Technology Group

Casey Courneen, CEO Blackstone Technology Group

When you arrive in West Philly sight unseen from SoCal, it’s comforting to meet another Californian from a surf town. Casey and I became fast friends and I’m so stoked that he’s taken time to share his story.
