Anna Nolan - Director
Anna, born and raised in Yekaterinburg (Russia) has been a resident of Macomb County for over 6 years where she lives with her wife and their two puppies – Lulu and Gigi. Her volunteering journey with MCP began 4 years ago when together with the Board she participated in organizing a few community-focused events. As a sommelier and a co-owner of the neighborhood wine bar Vino & Vibes, Anna is passionate about bringing people together, organizing events, supporting good causes and having a good time while doing so. It was just organic for Anna to join the MCP Board and become a part of the Programming and Events Committee where she thrives doing the things she loves the most – working on events, giving back to the community and making great things happen alongside fellow Board members and volunteers.
