Dan Rollman is a creative director, founder, and career/personal coach.
He’s worked in the creative departments at Goodby, Silverstein + Partners, WorkInProgress, and Fallon NY, and freelanced for Wieden+Kennedy, CP+B, BBH, Deutsch, Johannes Leonardo, BBDO, TBWA\Chiat\Day, and Amazon. He wrote Top 10 Super Bowl ads for Emerald Nuts and Pepsi, and won Cannes Lions for his work on AT&T.
Dan spent nearly a decade as Founder/CEO of RecordSetter, an online video platform that Wired called “the Wikipedia of world records.” After raising $2M+ in capital, RecordSetter processed over 70,000 user-generated videos from 110 countries—earning 250M+ views. Dan oversaw 30+ brand partnerships, including activations at two Super Bowls, and officiated world records on Shark Tank, CNN, and Late Night With Jimmy Fallon (nine times). He executive produced content for NBC and DreamWorks and co-authored the RecordSetter Book of World Records, an Amazon Top 100 title.
An avid collector (and sometimes creator) of blockchain art, Dan has consulted artists and companies on opportunities in the emerging Web3 space. His first NFT collection, a 50-work series entitled "Life in Less America," sold out in less than 24 hours.
