CHIR Welcomes New Faculty, Nadia Stovicek
CHIR is delighted to welcome Nadia Stovicek (she/her), M.P.P., as our newest faculty member.
Nadia joins CHIR as a research fellow. Her research will focus on state and federal policies related to surprise billing, health equity measures, and state efforts to establish a public option.
Prior to joining CHIR, Nadia worked as a legislative aide for the Maine State Senate Democrats, where she promoted health policy legislation (including measures to reduce prescription drug costs and expand postpartum care), helped shepherd Mainers’ access to unemployment insurance during the COVID-19 pandemic, and coordinated with advocates and members of the governor’s administration to enact bills into law. Before working in state government, Nadia was a field organizer. She campaigned to help elect Maine’s first woman governor, who expanded Medicaid in the state during her first day in office.
Nadia holds a master’s degree in public policy from the Georgetown University McCourt School of Public Policy. While earning her graduate degree, she interned at the Georgetown University Center for Children and Families, the Center for American Progress Women’s Initiative team, and CHIR. She also holds a B.A. in government from Colby College.
We are thrilled to have Nadia on our team!
