Lili Allala
Restoration Program Manager
Lili brings four years of field restoration experience to the Friends of the Hylebos. After graduating with an English degree from Winona University, Lili found her way to Seattle, where she became an EarthCorps crew member. In that capacity she has worked on many of our restoration projects. In addition to two years with EarthCorps, she has worked with the Forest Service and The Nature Conservancy. In that last capacity she learned a great deal about uplands and wetland habitat and developed an interest in wetland restoration.
When she's not tending to the wetlands and forests of the Hylebos, Lili enjoys hiking, camping, listening to soul and funk music, and is a huge fan of the Chicago White Sox.
