NASHVILLE, TN (CelebrityAccess) — Outback Presents announced the promotion of team member Rachel Derosia to Senior Vice President of Comedy.
In her new role at Outback, Derosia will continue to work with Outback Presents Co-CEO Brian Dorfman and recently hired Co-SVP of Comedy Joel Bachkoff to expand the company’s footprint in live comedy.
