Steve Pavlina was the founder and CEO of Dexterity Software as well as a software developer at that company.

He is the creator of the computer game Dweep. In 2000 Dweep won the Shareware Industry Award and the ZDNet Shareware Award.

In 2001 The sequel Dweep Gold won the Shareware Industry Award for Best Action/Arcade Game (beating out Arkanoid for the honour). Steve Pavlina served as Vice-President of the Association of Shareware Professionals(ASP) in 1999, and President of the ASP in 2000. The ASP's Hall of Fame page describes him as having had "a significant, lasting influence on others via his articles and postings".

On October 31, 2006 Steve Pavlina closed Dexterity Software and retired from game development in order to focus on a web site and blog dedicated to personal development, StevePavlina.com.

StevePavlina.com has become one of the most popular blogs dedicated to Personal Development.

Steve Pavlina's blog entries detailing his experimentation with polyphasic sleep became particularly well known and his article "How to become an early riser" was cited in an article on sleep in the UK Newspaper The Guardian.
