About

I’m April Pembleton, a mid-weight graphic designer with an 8+ year background creating culture-rooted, idea-led work across brand identity, print production, motion, web, and illustration. I enjoy finding the sharp concept that truly fits the brief—then developing it from the ground up so it’s both authentic and unexpected.

Over the last several years I’ve worked across a range of client briefs, including collaborations with marketing directors, brand managers, and strategists for global brands such as KFC, PizzaExpress, and Jacobs Douwe Egberts. I also strengthened my practice through professional development like D&AD Shift (where my team won the Guinness brief with an insight-driven campaign), and I bring a flexible, fast-moving approach to switching between brand personalities and creative challenges.
