In particular, she cultivated tropical plants. In 1995, she joined the French Center for Agricultural Research for Development (CIRAD) as a researcher in forestry. She also joined the National School of Forest Administration (ENSAF - former Institute of Rural Development), where she worked as a teacher-researcher.
