Hi Folks,
My name is Aderson Oliveira and I run DNNHero.com. First and foremost I want to explain why "DNNHero". You may think that I'm just a self-indulgent and presumptuous type of individual, but this is not the case. This came from a good friend of mine, Carole Martin. Back then we were working in a lot of DotNetNuke projects together and whenever she was facing a road block, she used to call me to fix it. Once the problem was gone, she used to say: "You are my DNN Hero!".
So when I decided to start recording my learnings on DotNetNuke, I went to check if the domain "DNNHero.com" was available. It was, so here we are.
With that one settled, now lets get to the meat and potatoes. I was born in Brazil, so now you know where my accent came from, but I have been living in Canada since 2002. I live with my wife and daughter in a small town called Ajax, just outside Toronto. When I'm not recording DNNHero.com videos, I'm working on DotNetNuke websites, entertaining my family, reading books, watching sci-fi or listening to music, in no particular order.
I have been on the Internet since 1995, right after I went to university. I graduated in 1999 and since then I have been working as a programmer, mostly with Microsoft technologies.
In 2006 I have discovered the power of CMS (Content Management Systems), in particular DotNetNuke. In 2007 I had the opportunity to co-found Aiyra Technologies, a web development company focused on DotNetNuke as a delivery platform. Aiyra was then sold in 2009, but during these 3 years we (myself and our team) have delivered over 300 websites all implemented with DotNetNuke.
In 2010 I have decided to focus my time and efforts on spreading the word about CMS platforms, in particular DotNetNuke.
We also offer services in DotNetNuke. If you are located in Toronto or the GTA and if you need help with DNN, get in touch with me and we will be able to give you a hand.
I hope you enjoy DNNHero.com and please feel free to send me your feedback about it.
Cheers to DNN!
