Featured Work

Selected Projects

Applied AI, NLP, data engineering, and analytics projects with clear scope and working source.

GenAIAPI + UI
01
RetailIQ: Sense Your Data
GenAI · Text-to-SQL
Turns retail questions into PostgreSQL SELECT-query previews using OpenRouter or OpenAI-compatible models. FastAPI validates and applies lightweight SQL checks; Streamlit presents the result. Queries are not executed, and RAG is not implemented.
KPI pipeline Rule-based
02
Automated KPI Extraction & Analytics Dashboard
End-to-End Data Pipeline · BI Dashboard
A document-to-dashboard pipeline that reads PDF and text reports, extracts revenue, churn, and NPS with deterministic rules, validates records with Pydantic, and stores them idempotently in SQLite. The Streamlit/Plotly dashboard includes date filters and CSV export; KPI extraction is not LLM-based.
Automation
03
Automated Retail Analytics Reporter
ETL · KPI Reporting · Delivery
Automates retail data preparation, KPI calculation, chart and PDF report creation, and scheduled stakeholder delivery. The repository documents email delivery and GitHub Actions scheduling.
⭐ Featured
04
Retail Analytics Platform
Async API · Retail Analytics
A simulated transaction platform with FastAPI ingestion, an async PostgreSQL backend, KPI and sales endpoints, and a Streamlit/Plotly dashboard. Includes a transaction simulator for exercising the ingestion flow.
AI
05
AI Resume Analyzer + EDA
Semantic Matching · NLP
Compares resumes with job descriptions using SentenceTransformer similarity plus spaCy/rule-based extraction and weighted skill and experience signals. Supports PDF, DOCX, and TXT, and returns match breakdowns, missing skills, and feedback.
Hot
06
Landslide Data Analysis
Environmental Data · EDA
Explores NASA Global Landslide Catalog data with Python: data cleaning, event trends across time and geography, trigger analysis, outlier exploration, and visual summaries.
AI
07
Hospital Outcomes: SQL & Tableau
Healthcare Analytics Case Study
SQL exploration and Tableau visualization of patient outcome patterns in a public hospital dataset. This repository is a BI case study, not a trained mortality-prediction model.
SQL
08
Layoffs Data Cleaning & EDA
MySQL · Data Quality
A SQL workflow for cleaning and exploring a public layoffs dataset, using staging tables, duplicate detection, standardization, missing-value handling, CTEs, and window functions.
