About Stefan Auvache Bradley
Hello. My name is Stefan Auvache Bradley.
I'm a software engineer with a Master's degree in Information Systems Management from Brigham Young University. I live in Vancouver, Washington with my family.
I write about how to iteratively build a life you actually want instead of chasing goals that ultimately leave you feeling unfulfilled. Every week, I share one idea about building your life the way you build great software—through small experiments and thoughtful iteration.
What Is Agile Personal Development?
In software engineering, teams use Agile methodology to build products through short cycles of planning, building, measuring, and iterating. Instead of spending months on a plan that may be wrong, they ship small increments, learn from real feedback, and adjust.
I believe the same approach works for life. Most of us were taught to set big goals and follow rigid plans. But how do you plan for something you've never experienced? How do you set the right goals when you don't yet know what fulfillment looks like for you?
Agile Personal Development is the practice of applying iterative, experimental frameworks from software engineering and project management to personal growth, career decisions, and intentional living. Plan a little, act, measure what happened, and iterate.
