I build data pipelines, forecasts, and dashboards that improve retail and operational decisions.

At Accenture, I integrate POS, e-commerce, and vendor EDI data across 64 stores into Microsoft Fabric Lakehouse pipelines, cutting daily refresh time from 90 to 27 minutes. I build DirectLake Power BI dashboards and vendor fill-rate reporting that help operations, finance, and buyers act on at-risk SKUs and reduce excess purchase orders.

Previously at Cognizant and Express Stores India, I built churn prediction, demand forecasting, retail analytics, ETL pipelines, and automated reporting using Python, SQL, PySpark, Snowflake, Azure, Power BI, and Tableau. My work rescued 28% of at-risk patients, improved forecast MAPE by 92%, lifted store-level sales by 22%, and reduced data and reporting inefficiencies through validation, automation, and governance.
