Sophia Birks
Event Manager
Sophia is very excited to be serving the community as the new Event Manager! Sophia specializes in Vendor relations and management and has a great passion for curating an experience that attendees will carry with them even after the event has ended. Before joining the StarEvents team, Sophia was performing and producing comedy shows and pop-up events around the city and hopes to bring that same ‘Yes And’ attitude to the 2022 festival season.
Wherever you go, there you are.
Q&A WITH Sophia Birks
HOW LONG HAVE YOU WORKED FOR STAREVENTS?
This is my first year a member of the StarEvents team!
WHAT’S YOUR PASSION OUTSIDE OF THE WORKPLACE?
I love to write and perform comedy around the city with my sketch duo The Roommates!
WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE EVENT OUTSIDE OF CHICAGO?
R.I.P. Warped Tour
WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE RESTAURANT IN CHICAGO?
If I have to choose just one it’s still a tie between Lowcountry and Sultan’s Market!
WHERE’S THE COOLEST PLACE A PROJECT HAS TAKEN YOU?
During a comedy tour I got to record one of my silly songs in Jack White’s Third Man Recording Booth which Willie Nelson has also recorded in. The record from the session is my most prized possession.
