Unscripted production company 3 Ball Entertainment has a new president: the company says Ronak Kordestani will take over at the helm of the LA-based producer, and will have responsibility for the company’s entire creative slate – encompassing a range of unscripted content for television and digital platforms – and will oversee all development and production.

3 Ball has a number of long-serving series currently running, including Bar Rescue (Paramount) and My Cat From Hell (Animal Planet), and says it also has multiple shows in development, such as Pampered Campers (Bravo) and others set up at CBS, Discovery, Paramount and more.

In a joint statement, 3 Ball co-CEOs Ross Weintraub and Todd A. Nelson, and chairman Reinout Oerlemans, said, “In Ronak we have found a uniquely talented and accomplished leader whose illustrious creative and production career is strengthened  by her background in law, business and talent management. With her range of expertise and singular vision for unscripted, we are confident Ronak will be a creative force and trailblazer at 3 Ball.”
