Eric Stone

Eric Stone leads all algorithm development and data science initiatives at Flipside Crypto. Eric joins Flipside Crypto with nearly a decade of experience as a Data Science executive, most recently as Lead Data Scientist for Product at Pluralsight and before that, Smarterer, where he led Data Science until the company’s acquisition by Pluralsight in 2014. Previous to Smarterer, Eric was a government spy, and probably knows what you did in 2011(he was actually building algorithms to predict geo-political events). Eric spent a number of years developing swing-trading algorithms for hedge funds and was also a Fellow at Temple University, where he pursued a PhD in statistics from 2010 to 2012, spending his summers at the USDA’s statistics service writing models to get farmers to answer more surveys.
