Claudio is a rare breed of senior executive in that he has retained his ability to write innovative code. I was often amazed when he’d demonstrate some new mobile app, or desktop feature implementation that he wrote “just for fun”. He is a great mentor to his staff and respected by all. During my tenure with him Claudio managed the largest Professional Services revenue producing area. He reads, writes, and speaks English, Portuguese, and Spanish. I’d recommend him to anyone.

I can honestly say that Claudio is one of the savviest people I have had the pleasure to work with. He is bright, energetic, enthusiastic, and a phenomenal team player. He always manages to keep his eye on the goal and consistently delivers on his commitments. His honesty and candor are unmatched. I really feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with Claudio at Gupta.
— Jeff Scroggin, former Sales Manager at GUPTA.
Claudio worked for me during some difficult yet ultimately very successful times at Borland. His knowledge of the Latin American distribution channel and tireless dedication were invaluable in helping me to manage the region. He is someone you can “go to war” with yet is one of the most genuinely honest people I’ve had the pleasure of working with.
— Kurt Heck, former Director of Sales at Borland.
Claudio and I worked together at Borland. Claudio was part of the Latin American business unit and reported to the GM of that business. Claudio did not report to me directly but the LA business unit was pretty small at HQ and I got to know Claudio well over a period of years. Claudio is very smart, technical, knew the technology inside and out, worked all hours, traveled constantly, worked well with customers and channel partners, was fun to be around, and helped produce excellent results for the most profitable business unit within my overall region. It was a pleasure to work with Claudio and would do so, again, in a heartbeat.
