Hi!

I am a member of the Rust compiler and mentor teams. Since my first contribution in April 2025, I have merged almost 100 pull requests of my own and reviewed over 280 more, fixing bugs, improving diagnostics, stabilising features and mentoring new contributors along the way

I care deeply about Rust, and I plan to continue investing a lot of time in improving the compiler, the test suite and the experience of contributors

Why support me?

I currently work a full-time job that isn't related to Rust project, so everything I do for the compiler happens in my free time: evenings, weekends, whenever I can find a few hours

Your support helps me keep doing this consistently and dedicate more focused time to compiler development and mentoring, instead of squeezing it in around everything else

If you have found my work, blog posts, mentoring or compiler improvements valuable, this is one way you can help me to continue doing them

Why only crypto?

I'm in Russia, where:

  • GitHub Sponsors doesn't work

  • International payment systems are blocked

    • Bank transfers are nearly impossible

    • Grant programs can't send funds here

At the moment, cryptocurrency is the only viable option for receiving support
