Arash Besharat

// I’m a 35-year-old professional with over a decade of experience in software development, complemented by strong domain knowledge in the tourism industry. Six years ago, when I resided in Iran, my homeland, I moved from Tehran to a picturesque village near Tonekabon, my birthplace, to revitalize a tea farm and realize my dreams alongside Arman, my younger brother. In this serene setting, we constructed wooden homes and an office to live and work harmoniously. I embarked on a journey of self-education in agriculture, food cultivation, carpentry, and building wooden structures. Our entrepreneurial endeavors spanned software solutions, SaaS, and the tourism sector.

I enjoy reading, watching science fiction movies, crafting, cycling in nature, art, literature, and architecture. My primary passion and career focus is software development, through which I aim to make significant contributions to the digital world. Exploring topics related to humanity and AI also captivates my interest. Currently, I am based in Stockholm, continuing my journey in Web Development and indulging in my diverse interests.

// My first brush with computing was at age five on my father’s Amiga 500. This exploration into the digital realm ignited my curiosity and set the stage for my future in design. When my father later introduced a PC with Windows 98 into our home in late 90’s, it felt like a gateway to a new world of creativity. Eagerly, I delved into Microsoft Paint, where my passion for painting transformed into a digital art form. This initial step into design was quickly followed by my venture into web development with Microsoft FrontPage. I crafted my very own homepage—a personal project that became a digital showcase accessible to friends through our landline number, marking my entry into the world of web design. This experience of sharing my updates and creations online was thrilling and led me to further expand my skills. I began using Dreamweaver and Flash to design websites for friends and family, elevating my projects with more complex designs and interactivity.

From my early days on the Amiga 500 to creating engaging digital spaces, my journey has been marked by a constant pursuit of learning and creativity in the digital design landscape.
