Rolfe's career took off at Crispin Porter + Bogusky in ‘99, playing a key role in the agency's pioneering innovation, earning it "Agency of the Decade" in 2010.

Rolfe also briefly led production at DDB Chicago, where he helped launch before-its-time Bud.tv.

In 2004, Rolfe conceived Integrated Production, to move beyond broadcast-centric practices, combining generalist and specialist roles, technology integration, in-house prototyping and new forms of collaboration, becoming industry standard.

At WPP / Hogarth, Dave is responsible for production strategies to elevate creative excellence for WPP clients, with focus on nurturing talent, innovative partnerships and platformed solutions.
