Hi, I'm

Abdullah

I shape products from zero to one and beyond with speed, clarity, and care.

I designed my first logo when I was 14. That curiosity led me to start my own studio while in high school, taking on everything from print and web to e-commerce and paid ads.

Since then, I’ve spent nearly a decade designing brands and products with ambitious founders and high-growth teams, mostly in fintech. Whether shaping v1s or scaling mature products, I move fast, stay outcome-focused, and build what people need, trust, and truly love.

I’m based in Toronto, where I spend my free time exploring cafes, staying active through sports, and experimenting in the kitchen.

I enjoy working with people.

Abdullah is an exceptional designer who consistently wears multiple hats with ease, thanks to his broad skill set and deeply collaborative nature. He played a pivotal role in taking a product from 0–1, shaping both the vision and execution with clarity and impact.


Throughout his work, Abdullah kept customers at the heart of every experience while balancing meaningful business and service decisions, making him a rare blend of strategic thinker, craft-focused designer, and thoughtful leader.

When people ask me what “impeccable taste” looks like in product and design, Abdullah is the name I come back to. I’ve watched him pair elite craft with sharp product instincts for nearly a decade. At mettleAI’s earliest stage, he helped turn raw ideas into a cohesive product story and experience.

Founder @ mettleAI

Abdullah has a great ability to go deep with customers and still move fast. At Marble, he was a key player as we went from idea to launch, leading discovery to uncover real use cases and shaping a strong product vision from those insights. He iterated quickly through concept testing and held a high bar in designing a trustworthy, easy experience for sharing health data.

Abdullah excels at turning complex customer needs into clear product direction. He led discovery with users, tested and refined a strong product vision, and rebuilt our reporting platform from first principles. Thoughtful, fast, and highly collaborative, he consistently raised the quality bar.
