During my time in this comprehensive, project-based training program, I deepened my knowledge of retail analytics, category management, and supply chain performance. I worked on real-world data projects that sharpened my ability to translate complex datasets into actionable insights, supporting business decisions across sales, merchandising, and operations. This hands-on experience strengthened my skills in forecasting, inventory management, and root cause analysis, while building proficiency in industry-standard tools such as Tableau, Power BI, and Scintilla (formerly Luminate).

I conducted detailed category analyses using POS, syndicated, and e-commerce data to uncover key sales and merchandising trends. I also built interactive dashboards that visualized sales patterns, supply chain inefficiencies, and growth opportunities. My work included creating reports on fill rates, MABD compliance, and in-stock metrics to support replenishment and demand planning efforts. By analyzing sales and DC data, I was able to forecast demand and identify inventory gaps, ultimately enhancing planning accuracy and allocation strategies.
