Career

Early career

Fabbri began competing with Claudio Pietrantonio in the 2014–15 season. Together, they were the 2016 Canadian national novice silver medalists. They were coached by Julien Lalonde, Mylène Girard, and Lynn McKay in La Prairie, Quebec and Saint-Hubert, Quebec.

2016–2017 season: Junior debut

Fabbri/Pietrantonio opened their season with a fourth-place finish at the 2016 Lake Placid Ice Dance International. They were assigned to their first Junior Grand Prix events. Fabbri/Pietrantonio placed fourth at 2016 JGP Russia in Saransk and sixth at 2016 JGP Germany in Dresden.

They placed seventh at the 2017 Canadian Championships.

2017–2018 season: First JGP medal

Fabbri/Pietrantonio placed fifth at 2017 JGP Latvia for their first international event of the season. They won their first international medal, a bronze, at 2017 JGP Italy.

They placed seventh at the 2018 Canadian Championships for the second consecutive year. Fabbri/Pietrantonio split following the competition.[2] Fabbri teamed up with Paul Ayer in April.[1]

2018–2019 season: New partnership

Fabbri/Ayer were assigned to two Junior Grand Prix events in their first season together. They placed fourth at 2018 JGP Slovakia and seventh at 2018 JGP Slovenia.

Fabbri/Ayer placed second at the 2019 Canadian Championships behind Marjorie Lajoie / Zachary Lagha. Together, they were named to the Canadian team for the 2019 World Junior Championships in Zagreb, Croatia.[3] At a tune-up event, the 2019 Bavarian Open, Fabbri/Ayer again won silver behind Lajoie/Lagha.[4]

Fabbri/Ayer were thirteenth after the rhythm dance segment at the 2019 World Junior Championships, but rallied with an eighth-place showing in the free dance to place ninth overall. Combined with Lajoie/Lagha's placement (first place), their rank qualified three ice dance spots for Canada at the 2020 World Junior Championships in Tallinn, Estonia.

2019–2020 season: New coaches

In July 2019, Fabbri/Ayer left coach Julien Lalonde to train with Marie-France Dubreuil, Patrice Lauzon, and Romain Haguenauer in Montreal.[5] They made their senior international debut at the 2019 CS Warsaw Cup, where they placed sixth with personal bests in all segments.
