My name is Ian Sime, and I was born in Liverpool UK in May 1970, and I have lived in Liverpool all of my life. I was married to Joanne in1995, and we were blessed with a baby boy called Matthew in 1997. Our second child, Heather, was born in 2002.

My career path in IT has taken me from Vernons Pools, to LabSystems, to Marconi Interactive Systems, to Christopher Rodgers Ltd, and now to CR Energy.

One of my favourite hobbies is karting. My friends, colleagues and I go to SpeedKarting in Warrington for indoor karting, and to Three Sisters in Wigan for outdoor karting. I also get my adrenalin kicks from jumping out of planes, driving a Lotus Elise around Donnington Park, Rally Driving at Silverstone, or knitting. Well OK, maybe not knitting.
