1 What is your earliest memory of Edinburgh? I remember being a toddler and getting dragged all round the shops in town, till mum took us into my favourite shop, Jenners' toy department.
2 What are your memories of school? I went to Trinity Academy – it was a fantastic school with a great mix of children, although I have to admit I wasn't a big fan of school and tended to dose off a lot. I'm a very hands-on person, I like to get stuck into physical work, so my favourite class was craft and design.
3 Where is your favourite place in Edinburgh and why? It has to be the Royal Park and Arthur's Seat, I enjoy flying my power kite and from time to time taking a walk up to the top for the fantastic view.
4 What are the best things about Edinburgh? I'm a massive fan of the Edinburgh Festival and Fringe. It never ceases to amaze me how a relatively small city can hold so many people, and the city is just buzzing with excitement.
5 What would you change about the city? I would have the building regulations tightened. I'm a sucker for the traditional buildings and feel that some of the new builds are built to a poor standard.
6 Describe a perfect Edinburgh day/night out. During the summer I'd get some friends together and head for the Meadows Festival where we could relax with a few beers and watch some of the bands, then have a BBQ and maybe some frisbee action before getting ready to head out for a bit of pubbing and clubbing.
7 Which sports interest you? I'm not a big fan of watching sports, but love snowboarding.
8 What was your most embarrassing moment? I was showing off on my wee 100cc motorcycle, acting all cool (I was only 17), so while riding down Leith Walk I never noticed the car in front stopping at a red light until it was too late and rode straight into the back, then slid up the tank, hurting a certain man part, before catching my leg on the horn.
9 What is your greatest achievement? My business. I set up Marchmont Gallery four years ago and it has grown from strength to strength.
10 Sum up Edinburgh in three words. Eclectically unique, gorgeous.
