- Wall, NJ
Hi, I'm Brian Harris, a field editor for the Manasquan-Belmar, Wall, Asbury Park, Point Pleasant, and Long Branch-Eatontown Patch sites. I grew up in Long Branch and graduated from Brookdale and Rutgers-Newark. I have experience in all different areas of the media landscape, from interning at Complex Media to covering multiple towns in Monmouth and Ocean County for Star News Group, where I won a New Jersey Press Association award for my work. Most recently, I was a part of Google's live news content and crisis response teams, and now I'm here at Patch to take all of that varied experience and give readers all the info they need.
Feel free to contact me at any time by email at brian.harris@patch.com, text me at 732-485-2379, or follow me on Twitter @ByBrianHarris
