About April
I help teams make delivery better — and make the change stick.
April Yoho is a Senior Developer Advocate and DevOps delivery specialist at GitHub, with 25+ years of experience across the software development lifecycle.
Her work focuses on how software is planned, built, secured, deployed, and operated — and on the people, processes, and platforms that make change stick.
She is known for making complex technical ideas clear, practical, and grounded in real-world delivery.
Outside of technology, April is a scuba diver, skier, hiker, and Ironman triathlete.
How I approach the work
What I believe
- Delivery is a system.Tools matter, but incentives, ownership, and feedback loops matter more.
- Adoption has to be earned.A platform succeeds when developers choose it because it makes their work better.
- Clarity beats theatre.Useful transformation is measurable, understandable, and resilient after the workshop ends.
