Christopher Yarde

I’m an Information Technology professional with experience implementing IT solutions, managing network security, and supporting system administration. I bring hands-on project work and a strong foundation in technical problem-solving to every support request.

In my IT Support Analyst Intern role, I provisioned and troubleshoot Azure Virtual Machines (VMs), VNets, and Network Security Groups (firewalls). I supported setup, configuration, and troubleshooting of an osTicket Help Desk Ticketing System, and handled Active Directory basics including user creation, role assignment, and security group management.

I also create and manage file share permissions on Windows Server to maintain data security and accessibility. I diagnose and resolve basic network issues to minimize downtime, and I use DNS fundamentals to troubleshoot and optimize configurations.

Beyond IT, I’ve built strong communication, active listening, empathy, and cross-functional collaboration through customer service/unit support. I’m motivated to keep delivering dependable technical support and growing into more advanced responsibility across systems and security.
