Claudio Lassala has been writing, speaking, and building software for over 30 years. In August 2005, he launched his personal blog at lassala.net, where he has published more than 550 posts reflecting on topics from software craftsmanship and Agile practices to creativity, music, and motorcycle racing.

Originally from Brazil, Claudio began his IT career at just 14, thanks to the generosity of a mentor who sparked his passion for learning and teaching. Since then, he has worked with teams across industries, coached developers, and delivered several talks at conferences and user groups. His work blends technical expertise with a love of storytelling, making complex ideas accessible and inspiring.

When he’s not writing or coding, Claudio can often be found on a racetrack riding his motorcycle, playing guitar, or exploring new ways to connect ideas across disciplines.
