Andrew Byer

Andrew Byer

Andrew Byer Attorney was born in 1962 in Jersey City, New Jersey, into a family enriched by his Italian immigrant mother's heritage. This bicultural environment, which included significant time spent in Italy, ingrained a deep appreciation for diverse cultures, influencing his aspirations and later career in international law. He pursued a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science at Columbia University, graduating in 1984, and his global perspective was further enhanced by a semester abroad in France.

After completing his Juris Doctor at Syracuse University College of Law in 1987, Andrew began his legal career in South Florida. His initial role was as Lease Administrator and Legal Counsel at Miracle Marketplace in Coral Gables, where he honed his skills in commercial law by managing lease negotiations and tenant relations.

In 1990, Andrew's career path shifted toward international business when he assumed the role of Director of Operations for Maria Pia, an Italian shoe manufacturer, in closing its U.S. operations. His fluency in Italian and comprehensive legal knowledge were crucial in overseeing the orderly shutdown of the company's American presence. He continued to build on this international experience from 1991 to 1994 as General Counsel and Director of International Sales at Intracorp, Inc., a firm that developed video gaming software. In this role, Andrew was pivotal in securing licensing deals with Hollywood studios, allowing for the creation of video games based on popular films, which dramatically expanded the company’s reach into global markets.

In 1994, leveraging his extensive legal and international business experience, Andrew founded the Law Offices of Andrew Alexander Byer. His practice specialized in helping European companies enter and thrive in the U.S. market, offering legal guidance and strategic business insights. His multilingual skills and deep understanding of cross-border transactions made his firm a valuable asset to its clients.

Driven by his love for high-quality audio, Andrew opened Magnum Opus Audio in 2007, a Fort Lauderdale boutique specializing in high-end audio and home theater systems. As the retail landscape evolved, he shifted his entrepreneurial focus to real estate, founding AJ&J Holdings, LLC, and later Bozhlona, Inc. in 2024, focusing on property management.

Outside his professional life, Andrew is an active philanthropist, mainly engaged in animal welfare and community service initiatives. Today, Andrew Byer significantly contributes to his industry and community, utilizing his vast experience in law, business, and real estate.

Strategic Marketing Leader | 15+ Years Driving Corporate Success 📈

Strategy and implementation rooted in data is where I love to live... which is why marketing was a natural fit for me. Understanding consumer/persona behavior (hot tip... they behave and react just like you and me... if you wouldn't engage... they wont either) and combining that with the data and metrics that matter the most to a brand to build impactful sales and marketing processes and strategies… makes working in marketing challenging and exciting at the same time.

Thankfully, I have had the opportunity to build a career in a field that I enjoy and has led to me becoming a seasoned data-driven professional in marketing operations, growth marketing, demand generation, and more. I've directed successful initiatives, maximizing ROI and market share... taken start-up brands from assisted to unassisted awareness (quantifiable), achieved meaningful boosts in brand engagement, and increased top-of-funnel activity by several multiples for b2b SaaS firms. I have also led campaigns and strategies for major clients including AT&T and the NFL Alumni Association.

With an MBA (Marketing focus), MIT Sloan Digital Marketing Certification, and proficiency in platforms like Salesforce and Adobe Creative Suite, I bring a unique blend of strategic planning, analytics, and creative expertise. Let's connect to explore how I can drive success for your team. #StrategicMarketing #CorporateSuccess #ROI

Dr. Stephanie Morgan Harris

Dr. Stephanie Morgan Harris

Dr. Stephanie Morgan-Harris approaches her role as Staff Engagement and Recruitment Coordinator for Kankakee School District #111 with equal parts strategic vision and dry humor—because education, after all, could use a little more of both. Tasked with addressing the ever-growing challenge of recruiting and retaining quality educators amid widespread teacher shortages, Dr. Morgan-Harris thrives in the high-pressure environment of human capital management. Her approach is pragmatic and driven, balancing the urgent need for staffing solutions with a deeper commitment to creating equitable and inclusive workplaces. Or, as she often quips, she’s just trying to make sure there are enough teachers to keep the classrooms running.

Dr. Morgan-Harris’s career trajectory is a testament to her passion for leadership and equity. Armed with a Doctor of Education in Educational Leadership from the University of Phoenix, she has built a reputation for bridging theory and practice in meaningful ways. Currently a Research Fellow at the Center for Workplace Diversity and Inclusion Research, she actively contributes to advancing conversations on equity, diversity, and inclusion in education. Her efforts extend beyond research; she’s a proud advocate for environments where students and educators feel valued and empowered to succeed. These principles underpin her leadership philosophy and drive her contributions to the Kankakee School District.

Her professional influence doesn’t stop there. Dr. Morgan-Harris serves as Regional Director-Elect for the Illinois Principal Association’s Three Rivers Region and as Legislative Liaison for the Illinois Alliance of Black School Educators, roles that position her as a key advocate for transformative educational policies. She has also been a voice for inclusive leadership as a presenter at prestigious conferences like the Columbia University Hip Hop Ed Conference, where she explored the cultural relevance of hip-hop in student engagement, and the ASCD Annual Conference, where she discussed AI-driven differentiated instruction. These presentations highlight her innovative approach to education and her knack for addressing modern challenges with creative solutions.

While her professional accomplishments are many, Dr. Morgan-Harris is equally proud of her personal life. She’s the mother of four—two adult sons and two teen daughters—who keep her grounded and inspired. Whether leading family sing-alongs to Disney classics or strategizing for systemic change in education, she approaches every facet of her life with unwavering passion and humor. In a field often fraught with challenges, Dr. Morgan-Harris exemplifies the resilience, empathy, and forward-thinking leadership necessary to make a lasting impact on schools, educators, and the students they serve.
