The Harris Agency

🌟THA Spotlight: Brian McIver 🌟 We’re excited to shine a spotlight on Brian McIver, our resident PR guru who’s been dazzling us at The Harris Agency for 5 fantastic years! With 25 years of experience in communications, Brian is a force to be reckoned with, bringing a consumer-centric mindset that keeps our clients happy and our team inspired. A true nomad at heart, Brian splits his time between New York, Florida, and Palm Springs, making the most of remote work while embracing the beach life. He’s also the President of the board for Jennifer Muller/The Works, a contemporary dance company, proving that he can entwine his passions into everything he does! Outside of work, Brian is a traveler, an art aficionado, and a theatre buff who never misses a Broadway show. And if you think that’s impressive, wait until you hear he was a recording artist who sang with the New York Metros Mass Choir, gracing iconic venues like Carnegie Hall and Jazz at Lincoln Center!🎤 Kennedy Stukes, a colleague at THA, shared, "Though I’ve only known Brian for a year, his impact has been major in my THA journey. He brings such an energy to our meetings that they feel more like an opportunity to connect than just any ordinary meeting. His wit and humor welcomed me immediately, and he consistently goes out of his way to build friendships, whether it’s over dinner or a night at the theater." Brian, your incredible contributions and infectious energy make THA a brighter place every day! Thank you for being you! 🎉 #THASpotlight #EmployeeAppreciation

Our on-site visits allow for personal interactions that help us foster deeper connections and better understand client goals to achieve great results.     At The Harris Agency, we truly blend the best of both worlds: remote efficiency and genuine in-person connections! #THA #ClientRelations #ClientFirst #RemoteWork 

🌟 THA Spotlight: Jillian Chertok 🌟 We’re thrilled to shine a spotlight on one of our incredible team members, Jillian Chertok, who has been with The Harris Agency since its inception! When Peter Harris started THA, Jillian didn’t hesitate—she took a leap of faith, and we’ve been better for it ever since. With over 20 years of experience in PR and communications, Jillian is a true powerhouse. Her expertise and creative thinking have been vital to our success, and her unwavering dedication to our clients shows in everything she does. As a Long Island resident, Jillian has taken a liking to the outdoors and is a running enthusiast, hitting the pavement three times a week. She's also a dedicated book lover who enjoys losing herself in fiction and biographies on the weekends. THA friend and colleague Mary N. shared, "I’ve had the pleasure working with Jillian for years, starting with our days at MSL in NYC, and currently at The Harris Agency. Reliable, resourceful, smart, and helpful are just some of her many strengths. She is fantastic when it comes to media relations; she consistently finds valuable opportunities for our clients. The fact that she’s also a Ravens fan is a bonus in my book. I look forward to working with her on more clients and projects!" Her wit keeps us laughing, her passion keeps us driven, and her commitment keeps us thriving. We’re so grateful for Jillian’s contributions and all the positivity she brings to The Harris Agency! Thank you, Jillian, for being an irreplaceable part of our team and for making every day brighter! 🎉 #THASpotlight #EmployeeAppreciation

🌊 Celebrating Success at the Watermen’s Ball! 🌊 Last Thursday, Never Off Duty 501c3 (NOD) hosted its first-ever Watermen’s Ball, an inspiring event that brought together the New Jersey community at Edgewater Beach Club to support a vital cause. Thanks to the generosity of attendees and sponsors, over $24K was raised to further NOD’s mission of improving water safety and lifeguard training across New Jersey. Founded in 2017 by Jason Bitzer, NOD has grown from its roots in Hawaii to make a significant impact in New Jersey. The Watermen’s Ball highlighted the organization’s commitment to excellence with a competitive lifeguarding showcase, recognition of a hardworking and inspiring lifeguarding agency, and opportunities for guests to contribute through exciting auctions. This night was a testament to the power of community and the importance of ensuring safety in our waters.
