About Omer Shamil
I’m an Econometrics and Public Policy student at Gettysburg College, passionate about using data to shape equitable and evidence-based policy. My experience spans organizations such as BBC Research & Consulting, the Malala Fund, and Karandaaz Pakistan, where I’ve built economic impact models, analyzed gender finance programs, and developed data-driven frameworks for inclusive growth.I’m particularly interested in the intersection of economics, social equity, and sustainable development, turning complex datasets into insights that inform real policy decisions. Skilled in Stata, R, and Excel, I approach research as both a technical and human process: rigorous in analysis, yet grounded in impact.Beyond research, I’ve led student sustainability expeditions, facilitated leadership programs, and helped raise gifts in alumni support. Experiences that strengthened my belief in collaboration, authenticity, and service as drivers of change.
