Originally from Moscow, Russia, Anna (she/her) is a consultant at Baker Richards by day and a festival and event coordinator by night.

Having interned at the British Council Russia and the Embassy of Spain in Moscow, Anna went on to coordinate special film screenings at the CoolConnections Arts Association before moving to Scotland to complete her Master’s degree in 2018.

While a student, she volunteered at the EIFF, the Jazz and Blues Festival, Imaginate and the ESFF and can no longer imagine her life without Edinburgh’s endless festival frenzy.

Missing her Erasmus days in Salamanca, Spain, Anna joined CinemaAttic in September 2019 as a Project Coordinator. She has since enjoyed the adrenaline rush that comes with managing film happenings and events and is trying her best to bring order to the creative chaos that is the CinemaAttic family.
