GitHub Sponsors Profile

I have been involved in Rust for over 7 years, landing my first PR in the Rust project in May of 2013.
I am the author of 14 accepted RFCs to the Rust project, including the modern design of cfg attributes, the move of enum variants to the enum's namespace, the prohibition of wildcard dependencies on crates.io, and the stable interface of pluggable global allocators.
I have been a part of the Rust project's library governance team since its inception, helping to guide the evolution of both the Rust standard library and the broader ecosystem.
I maintain several significant libraries in the Rust ecosystem, including rust-openssl, rust-native-tls, and rust-postgres. I also wrote the original implementation of cargo-tree, which has been upstreamed into Cargo itself.

I like working on stuff that seems interesting to me, and sometimes that turns out to be interesting to other people as well!
