Born in England of Jamaican parents, Transformational Trainer/Facilitator, Adjunct Lecturer, Life and Corporate Coach and Performing Arts Specialist Fabian M. Thomas has taken on many roles over the years and feels that each one is as important as the next in defining who he is and his life’s work.

In the theatre he plays roles both on and off stage, as a writer, award-winning director, dramaturg and actor, singer, choreographer, spoken word performer and poet.

While working in Entertainment in the tourism industry, he would continue his training and become immersed in event planning and was soon named Entertainment Manager at Sandals Royal Caribbean. He held this position for 5 years, for which he was named ‘Entertainment Manager of the Year’ in two different counties by The Jamaica Federation of Musicians.

Fabian is the founder and Artistic Director of the performing arts collective Tribe Sankofa, a vibrant and eclectic cadre of multi-talented performers who combine their artistry to add an exciting new dimension to the performing arts landscape of Jamaica and the rest of the world. Our niche is “….borrowed and original spoken word/poetry, soulful song-styling uniquely blended with other visual and performing arts”.

In 2018, he self-published his collection of gratitude verses, affirmations and spoken word entitled New Thought, New Words and Djembe, his first illustrated book for children, in 2022. In that same year he co-authored and self-published the poetry/spoken word chapbook Tribal Elements: A Tribe Ting, Vol 1 with three members of Tribe Sankofa. His first collection of poetry and spoken word the solace of sound was published by Independent Voyces Literary Works in March 2025. He hosts a YouTube talk/interview show called Fabian Seh! Fabian is dedicated to the Arts as a tool for transformation.
