Before joining CorpsAfrica, he served as an agriculture extensionist in Nyabihu district, under the Youth Engagement for Agriculture Networking initiative.

Furthermore, Fabien contributed his skills as a data enumerator in the Societal University Villages Initiatives, a project under the University of Rwanda that aimed to comprehensively assess the relationship between poverty and food security in the western province. He also gained practical experience as a marketing agent at Kenya Seeds Company Limited, where he played a pivotal role in educating and mobilizing farmers on the optimal use of the company’s top-quality seeds to enhance their agricultural production.
