Plugged In – Blizzard Spotlight on Danielle Rozga

Plugged In LogoThis weeks’ Plugged-In feature-ette is the amazing Danielle Rozga.  Even though she’s working from Durango these days – her dedication to her clients and her general awesome-ness shines through – even via IM :)  Her cute pup Mollie is sorely missed, as is she, but at least we can IM her constantly, every day, 10 times a day – plus phone calls, and emails….and……..

So sit down with a cup of coffee and meet:

Your Title with Blizzard: Project Manager

How long have you worked for Blizzard? Almost 3 years

What are your goals for 2008?
Professionally, my goal for 2008 is to continue to develop my expertise in Project Management, through continued experience, reading, research, training, and anything I can get my hands on!

Personally, my goal for 2008 is to watch a little less reality tv, and head to the gym a little more!

What aspect of your job keeps you coming to work every day?
The people!  My clients and my fellow Blizzard employees.

Favorite Quote?
“More Cowbell”…..enough said. CH: I have no idea what are you talking about :))


What is your favorite part of working at Blizzard?
Again – the people make Blizzard a great place to work! 

What is your favorite Movie?
“Stand By Me” is one of my all-time favorite movies.  And the latest “Pride & Prejudice”, I could watch that a million times.

Favorite Song?
My wedding song of course! John Legend’s “Stay With You”

Favorite Book?
Oooohhh- this is a tough one.  Right now, I am reading about every book on Marie Antoinette I can find (and I still hold out hope that her fate is changed in everyone, but no one wants to rewrite history!)

Favorite Food?
Tuna Casserole (yes, I admit it.)  CH: tuna is not food – canned fish is evil

Favorite Neil Diamond Song?
Seriously, you Neil Diamond fans are crazy!  If there is one person I could NOT meet, it would be Neil Diamond.  Sorry!

  1. Hi Daniellle,
    Maybe you should explain the cowbell thing. ;>)(

    I think that Neil Diamond may indeed have a home up in Basalt. Maybe we could arrange an introduction.

  2. Danielle is truly the best – I know that everyone that works with her, including colleagues and clients, would agree!

    Not only is she super star smart, everything she touches is made better, and she is a blast to be around! We are lucky to have her on Team Blizzard!

    P.S. – D, I’m with you on Neil Diamond, why couldn’t we share our favorite NKOTB song?
    P.S.S. – My favorite is Hanging Tough.

    Danielle, I think I would have kept the whole tuna casserole to myself if I were you! And, c’mon, who couldn’t listen to “Kentucky Woman” every day? “Cracklin’ Rosie”? “Love on the Rocks”?

    It was great to see you in the office this week!

    p.s. – Jill, there has never been a good NKOTB song. Ever. :-)

    Geesh – “More Cowbell” – Will Ferrell, Christpoher Walken, SNL…it even has an entire wikipedia page… Youtube has an ok version, I like this one better: http://www.dork.tv/view/More+cowbell+Blue+Oyster+Cult+SNL+Skit.html

    I know, tuna casserole was brutal honesty. I cringed a little when I saw that.

    And NKOTB is awesome. Don’t deny it people.

    Yeah I have to agree with Carrie in that Tuna Casserole is evil, maybe being forced to eat it when I was kid has something to do with it. Ick!

    I am not sure if I even know of a Neil Diamond song, but I must confess I did have an NKOTB tie-dye t-shirt and I even made my mom buy me British Knight high tops just b/c Knight was Jordan and Jon’s last name, haha ;)
