Three Fast Facts
1. I volunteer at OMSI.
2. I enjoy DIY-ing.
3. I like to make kids’ costumes.

More about Bitsie
I started working at CBI after taking care of Rabbi Joseph’s son for 3 years while I was getting my Bachelor’s degree at Portland State University. I’m originally from Silverton, Oregon where the rest of my family still lives.

What I do at CBI
I can usually find out anything you need. I specialize in the cemetery and tributes.
