Katelyn Ceh is the director of conservation, parkland and grasslands for the Nature Conservancy of Canada (NCC) in Alberta. She works on specific stewardship programs and projects with Alberta’s natural area managers. Currently, her work is focused on ecological restoration in Alberta, restoring key habitats and positively impacting conservation and communities. Working with partners and colleagues to restore land for future generations is work she is very proud to be a part of.

Katelyn started with NCC as a conservation intern in 2013. She joined NCC because she is passionate about land conservation and stewardship and wanted to work with an organization that has a real impact on habitat conservation.

Katelyn holds a bachelor of science degree in environmental conservation sciences, with a major in conservation biology from the University of Alberta. She recently returned to school to get a professional specialization certificate in ecological restoration through the University of Victoria. She’s worked with NCC in various roles for most of her career, and she also worked in environmental consulting on pre-disturbance assessments and site remediation for a short time.

Katelyn enjoys any hobbies that get her outside. She loves hiking, backpacking, kayaking, snowshoeing, and gardening. She enjoys learning new bird species and identifying plants she finds along her adventures.
