GitHub Sponsors Profile

I am the co-lead of rustdoc. I helped stabilize intra-doc links in Rust 1.48. I have also made various performance improvements to Rustdoc and helped recruit members to the team. I occasionally contribute to pulldown-cmark, a markdown parser used by rustdoc.
I am the co-lead of docs.rs, including triage, code review, and adding new features. I made a lot of people happy a few months ago when I fixed the 'redirect to latest version feature'.
I am the co-lead of the rustc-dev-guide working group. I make it easier to contribute to the rust compiler itself by documenting and improving the build process.
I am the maintainer of cargo-deadlinks, a tool for checking your documentation for deadlinks. I have contributed to various libraries used by deadlinks, including ureq and lol_html.
I used to develop saltwater, a C Compiler written in Rust, but the project is no longer maintained. I contributed to various libraries that saltwater depends on, including cranelift, faerie, and ranges.
For personal use, I have written a search tool for GroupMe called grepme used by various other students at my university.
