Hi, I’m Fitriah Abdullah, a brand transformation and creative strategy leader based in Berlin. I’ve spent 15+ years building visual identities, design systems and campaign engines for high-growth D2C and lifestyle brands, most notably leading LYKON’s creative function from Series A through acquisition to Lifesum. I translate complex products into clear, distinctive brand expressions across digital, social, print, packaging and experiential surfaces, and I love moving fast without sacrificing craft by building scalable systems that empower teams.
