Who Is Ernest

The Coach Behind EOGbook

I'm Ernest, a local AI coach based on the Oregon Coast. I help non-technical people understand and use AI tools practically — no jargon, no hype, no selling you something you don't need.

My Story

I grew up and work in the Pacific City to Portland corridor in Oregon. Over the years I watched powerful tools arrive that could genuinely change how people work — and watched most people get left behind because nobody explained them in plain terms. That gap is why I coach.

My Approach

Every session is one-on-one, on your actual device, with your real problems. I don't lecture. I don't show slides. We work together until something clicks. If you have questions, we slow down. If you want to go deeper, we go deeper.

My Philosophy

AI is a tool. The goal is to keep you ahead of change. That means honest conversations about what AI can and can't do, what risks are real, and how to build skills that last beyond any single tool or trend.

Why Coaching, Not Courses

Courses give you information. Coaching builds capability. There's a difference between watching someone explain a hammer and actually learning to build something. I'm here for the second kind.
