Alia Snively

Alia Snively is the ecological restoration manager with the Nature Conservancy of Canada in Alberta. She works to help plan, coordinate and execute restoration projects on NCC properties by working closely with contractors and natural area managers at NCC.

Alia joined NCC in April of 2015 as the natural area manager in central Alberta. She has always loved nature and being outdoors so when given the chance to work for NCC she packed up and moved to Red Deer. Additionally, she has always felt passionate about conserving natural landscapes for future generations and is sharing her love of nature with her children.

Alia earned a master’s degree in land reclamation and a bachelor’s degree in environmental and conservation sciences from the University of Alberta. Fresh out of school, Alia worked with NCC as the natural area manager in central Alberta for seven years. She loved managing and getting to know the properties and neighbours in the Red Deer River Natural Area but was excited to have the opportunity to take on the new role of ecological restoration manager in September 2022.

Alia loves hiking, camping, recreational sports, gardening, house plants and spending time with her family. Having small children is at times exhausting but getting the chance to teach them about nature and experience the world through their eyes brings new excitement to the things she is passionate about.
