April 2009. Grew a beard. It was bushy.
Originally from Chesterfield in Derbyshire, Birks has been spreading the love/madness in Ipswich, UK since 1995. Studying at Suffolk College, Birks has a degree in Design Communications, which hasn’t gone to waste.
Birks has a day job at WNS Workflow Technologies, a software provider for a motor claims handling service provider.
Here he is the arty person, being involved in all sorts of graphic and web design. And the photographer for company events, such as drunken Christmas parties. For this he has nearly been fired on numerous occasions.
Birks has also been involved in other pursuits, as a freelance cartoonist clients have ranged from large financial services companies, to magazines, and bands.
As a photographer Birks has been involved with many weddings, portraits and events, with work published in magazines and the BBC website.
Outside of work, Birks lives in the down to earth county of Suffolk; has a lovely big network of friends and family; likes ales, stouts and red wine; goes to the gym, yet yields to the chocolate; is a gadget junkie; dances like a nutter to indie, rock and dance music; and has a white van, and sometimes a beard, yet screams like a girl in comical fashion when inappropriate.
