# I'm Raphael Bitton.

<h1 style="font-size:3em !important; line-height:1.1;">Raphael Bitton</h1>

I'm an undergraduate at the University of Chicago studying Data Science and Music.
### Student, System Orchestrator (and Occasional Composer), Explorer
I'm a Linux enthusiast (some call me an absolutist). Everything I own runs Linux, and nothing excites me more than an hours-long terminal session.
Welcome to my home. Please take off your shoes before entering—or don’t; I’m not checking.
I'm a world traveler — see my flight log and select photos in the menu above.
You can use the menu above to find where you’d like to go—or just stare at my headshot for a while. Either is fine.
I'm an amateur composer; I’m working on a way to host my music and scores here.

This is the part that isn’t all sparkles and rainbows. I’ll be honest—you struggle. You feel lost for a while, uncertain of identity and direction. Like many people, you go through a rough patch, taking time off school and learning some hard lessons about unhealthy coping mechanisms—travel, distraction, and yes, too much alcohol. But you come out on the other side feeling stronger than ever and having truly lived. In the span of one year—2023—you visit 24 countries across all six inhabited continents, more than most people ever will. You get to experience a multitude of cultures and expressions of life, love, and happiness. You wouldn’t trade that experience for the world.
At this point, you’ve given up on composition, despite a few heartfelt efforts to revive your love for it. After a while, you come back to school and discover your next big thing: Linux. Linux can quite possibly be described as the single greatest thing to happen to you. It fills the void you’d had in your life and gives you something to manically obsess over at 4 a.m. Something about orchestrating systems tickles your fancy in a way nothing else ever has. You ditch your iPhone, MacBook, and Windows desktop—all for Linux—and you have absolutely no regrets. You decide you want to spend the rest of your life working with these systems, dedicating all your spare time to them: setting up fast Docker Compose stacks, a website, a flight log, and a growing constellation of self-hosted services distributed across servers around the country.

And now you’re here. About to graduate and still have no idea what’s next. Go back home? Work for an airline? Try your luck as a system administrator? You don’t know yet — and that’s the point. Life rarely gives you the full configuration upfront. The only way forward is to test, deploy, and iterate.
