    Description of Can I Be Ernest?


    Can I Be Ernest? delivers an uncensored look at his childhood struggles in a quest for adoration, admiration and acceptance. His search leads to a series of unfathomable events greatly impacting his life… forever.

    On this winding journey, Ernest targets the inexperienced and immature on the importance of owning their idiosyncrasies without succumbing to the pressures of social acceptance and life’s deceptions. He examines education and corporate America, sheds light on toxic relationships, fatherhood and the significance of friendships, while gushing over his love for America’s pastime… baseball!

    Can I Be Ernest? is deeply reflective, exposing raw emotions, truth-telling, self-deprecating humor and enough nostalgia to last a lifetime!
