Thanks for considering being my sponsor. My career right now is dedicated to full-time open source development. Since 2015, I have been focused on developing the Apache Arrow project. I originally created the Python pandas project but turned it over to the community in 2013, and it's currently maintained by a growing core developer team.

I have a salary (paid for by RStudio and our other sponsors) as part of Ursa Labs so I don't need the sponsorship to pay my rent, but every bit helps ensure that I'm able to continue doing open source development well into the future.

If you are interested in sponsoring Ursa Labs or Apache Arrow generally, I would recommend you head over to the Ursa Labs sponsorship page. You're welcome to sponsor me directly of course.
