Hi there

I'm Arvin, a software engineer and founder based in Seattle. I'm currently building at Arkero, shipping full-stack features for an AI-native platform used by professional sports clubs. I also co-founded BeamBell, an AI receptionist company whose first product, SalonAgent, serves paying salons across four countries.

Previously, I built CRM integrations and document migration workflows at Proper.ai, where I mentored nine engineering interns. I also co-founded ESEC, UW's entrepreneurship and startup club, growing it to 40+ active members. I'm a senior studying Informatics at the University of Washington. My work connects engineering, customer discovery, and getting useful products into people's hands.
