Reorg promotes six editorial staffers to new roles

Reorg, a news service that covers distressed debt and corporate reorganizations, has promoted six of its editorial staffers to new positions.

They are:

Harvard Zhang

Zhang was promoted as Reorg Americas’ deputy managing editor of distressed debt. Prior to joining Reorg seven years ago, Zhang was a reporter at Bloomberg News, where he covered company debt across the ratings scale on the corporate finance team. He has a B.E. in energy and resources engineering from Peking University in Beijing and an M.A. in business journalism from Northwestern University.

Seth Brumby

Brumby was promoted to deputy managing editor of performing credit at Reorg. In his new role, Brumby will expand Reorg’s coverage into the U.S. CLO and private credit markets while continuing his oversight of the municipal desk. Brumby joined Reorg in 2021 after working for 15 years at Debtwire, where he cut his teeth reporting on distressed residential and commercial real estate, then the collapse of Lehman Brothers and the Great Financial Crises. The monoline fallout led him to the municipal bond market where he covered Puerto Rico’s credit. In 2018, he pivoted to the structured and private credit markets, then jumped back into the distressed trenches for the Covid19 pandemic. He graduated from SUNY Albany in 2002.

Geoff Burrows

Geoff Burrows has been promoted to senior reporter at Reorg. In his new role as senior reporter, Burrows will continue to report on distressed debt and leveraged finance. Prior to joining Reorg in August 2022, Burrows was a commercial real estate analyst after graduating from the University of Toronto.

Patrick Fitzgerald

Fitzgerald was promoted to senior reporter at Reorg. He was previously a distressed debt reporter based out of Reorg’s New York City office. Patrick has been with the company since March 2021. He previously worked as a reporter for Fastmarkets, which was then part of Euromoney Institutional Investor.
