Retail Inventory and Optimization Tool
Retailers often collect large amounts of sales and inventory data but lack
a system to turn it into clear, actionable decisions, making it hard to
know which products to reorder, which are slow-moving, and which risk
stockouts or overstocking.
I built an end-to-end analytics pipeline to solve this. Using Python and
Pandas, I cleaned a raw retail dataset, handling missing values based on
what each one actually meant in context (e.g. a missing discount treated
as "none," while a missing inventory value was filled with the average
rather than falsely assumed to be zero). The cleaned data was loaded into
MySQL for exploratory analysis, then connected to an interactive Power BI
dashboard summarizing revenue, stock levels, demand fulfillment, and sales
trends by category, store, and season.
Key findings included a 95.71% demand fulfillment rate (revealing real,
recoverable lost sales), evenly balanced sales across all products
categories and seasons, and one store carrying noticeably higher inventory
than others despite similar sales flagging a possible overstocking risk.

I’ve been building an AI-powered social media automation platform that turns ecommerce products into ready-to-publish marketing content.
The workflow can:
→ Connect to an ecommerce store
→ Sync products automatically
→ Generate social media content with AI
→ Create product-focused visuals
→ Prepare posts/stories for social platforms
→ Schedule and publish content
→ Keep product marketing running with minimal manual work
The bigger idea isn’t just “AI-generated posts.”
It’s building an automated marketing workflow around the actual products in your store.
This is the kind of automation I enjoy building: connecting APIs, AI agents, ecommerce systems, content generation, and social platforms into one practical workflow.
If you're running an ecommerce business and still creating every product post manually, there’s probably a lot that can be automated.
