Hello again, I’m Linxin Lu, also call me April.
I’m a creator, focusing on Art Direction & Graphic Design. I have obsessions with Creative Strategy, Visual Storytelling, and Documenting the same original-fit jeans paired with kaleidoscope-colored socks. When I try to “get rid of” the screen, I enjoy reading At the Existentialist Cafe: Freedom, Being, and Apricot Cocktails while listening to my inner peace playlist in the comfort of the library recently.

WELCOME TO THE APRILAND
I'm a designer pursuing a master's degree in advertising at the Savannah College of Art and Design, specializing in art direction. My design journey has taken me from Mainland China to Taiwan to Florence, where I've honed my skills in storytelling through graphic language. I'm passionate about using advertising to connect with people globally, fostering interaction and communication. Beyond design, I'm a photographer and printmaker who documents life's moments while celebrating inclusion and diversity. Join me on this creative journey to make the world more engaging and visually inspiring.
Thank you for visiting, and I look forward to connecting with you!
