Harris said he previously served as a councilman in Atlantic Highlands in northern Monmouth County and as a member of the school board in that community. “I left (the municipal clerk’s position in) Berlin (Camden County) because my wife, who is a former councilwoman in Eatontown and who was working in Eatontown, was tired of commuting from Lawrenceville, where we currently reside, so we agreed I would relocate back to Monmouth County a decision I am pretty happy with,” Harris said. “Ironically, I was here in Howell for a few months when Boston Market opened before leaving to open stores in Aberdeen Township, Hazlet, Middletown, Shrewsbury and Menlo Park (Edison).

In an interview, Harris said that prior to entering the field of municipal government, he worked in restaurant development.
