About Eric Novik

Thanks for stopping by.  I am an applied statistician and co-founder and CEO of Generable. My life has been connected to software since I was a 12-year-old kid in Riga, Latvia (USSR) when my stepfather, Dimitry Krupnikov, brought home a Soviet PC clone. I discovered how to manage uncertainty by trading options in 2005, thanks to Tom Sosnoff and the gang at Thinkorswim.  I was introduced to Statistics in 2007, thanks to my friend and statistics professor Robert Stinerock.  More recently, I learned how to think about statistics from Andrew Gelman and the amazing Stan team. I have been involved in Startups since 2010, thanks to Owen Davis, Alex Iskold, and many others. I have three kids whom I love very much even though I tell other people that desire for offspring is nature’s trick.  I live in Brooklyn with my wife Jacki, who saved my life once and continues doing so every day. My LinkedIn profile has some seriously boring stuff on it. You can also follow me on Twitter: @ericnovik.
