Nelson Herrera, being called “El Ejemplo” (The Example) is something complementary. Carrying this commitment is great, but when it comes to a human being with so many qualities as it is this humble young man with a talent, extraordinary as is the case of “El Ejemplo” Nelson Herrera. He was born on March 23 in a picturesque little field in the Dominican Republic called Canete, home of good performers such as Frank Reyes and Bolivar Peralta.
