In 2000, Sempértegui was hired as a minor public official in the Шаблон:Ill. She became a woman of confidence to Шаблон:Ill, who appointed her as his advisor in the mayor's office. She was kept on board following Paredes's ascent as prefect in 2006 and remained in administration through his fall from power in 2008. Despite her lack of political experience, Paredes secured Sempértegui's election to parliament in 2009. His exile meant she was not re-nominated in 2014.
Early life and career
Early life and education
Ana María Sempértegui was born on 15 December 1958 in Potosí to a family of humble means involved in the department's mining industry.Шаблон:Sfnm She was one of seven childrenШаблон:Sndthree girls and four boysШаблон:Sndborn to Héctor Sempértegui Toro, a mine mechanic stationed at Pailaviri, and his wife Elena Valdez Tardío, a career homemaker.Шаблон:Sfnm

Accounting and business career
Sempértegui worked in administration at the Potosí Development Corporation (CORDEPO) from 1985 to 1986.Шаблон:Sfn Following the death of her father, she and her mother moved to Argentina to stay with family. She gained employment as a bookseller in Buenos Aires before being brought on as an accounting clerk at Termas VillavicencioШаблон:Sndbut ultimately opted to accompany her mother's return trip to Bolivia.Шаблон:Sfn
Resettled in Potosí, Sempértegui returned to her previous job at CORDEPO between 1988 and 1989.Шаблон:Sfn Following her marriage, she retired from her profession to raise their three children. She accompanied her husband's postings to Monteagudo and later La Paz, where they settled and she reentered the workforce.Шаблон:Sfn Sempértegui lent her services to private sector corporations for the next half-decade: at Copla, an import-export company, from 1995 and 1996, and at the construction companies Ormachea and América from 1997 to 1998 and 1998 to 2000, respectively.Шаблон:Sfn
Public official
Sempértegui's late entrance into politics began indirectly.Шаблон:Sfn Encouraged by her husband, she answered a public tender to work at the Шаблон:Ill and was brought on as an administrative assistant at the Chief Financial Administrative Office.Шаблон:Sfn She became a close personal confidant to then-mayor Шаблон:Ill,Шаблон:Sfn who appointed her general advisor of the El Alto Mayor's Office, a post she held throughout his two terms in office between 2000 and 2005.Шаблон:Sfnm
Paredes was elected prefect of the La Paz Department in 2005 and,Шаблон:Sfn with his ascent to office early the following year,Шаблон:Sfn brought on Sempértegui to her previous advisory position within the new administration.

In the ensuing years, Sempértegui returned to the private sector as the administrative manager and financial controller of automotive manufacturer Toyosa from 2008 to 2009.Шаблон:Sfn At the same time, she also maintained a presence in the civil service as a consultant for the Шаблон:Ill,Шаблон:Sfn as well as her ties to Paredes, as his personal accountant.Шаблон:Sfn
Chamber of Deputies
Election
Шаблон:Further In the leadup to the 2009 election, Paredes invited Sempértegui to join the National Convergence (CN) ticket as a candidate for parliament.Шаблон:Sfn In effect, Paredes's party, Plan Progress for Bolivia (PPB), granted CN the legal backing it needed to competeШаблон:Sndgiving him great latitude to select candidates as he saw fit.Шаблон:Sfn Just as he had done in 2005, Paredes placed members of his innermost circleШаблон:Sndup to and including relativesШаблон:Sndin the "safety zone" of CN's slate of candidates, regardless of past political experience or public notoriety.Шаблон:Sfn The result: Sempértegui was elected to the Chamber of Deputies,Шаблон:Sfn accompanied by two other members of PPB affiliated with ParedesШаблон:Sndhis former cabinet secretary, Alejandro Zapata, and his own son, Hernán Paredes.Шаблон:Sfn
Tenure
No sooner did the elections come to pass than CNШаблон:Snddevoid of either clear leadership or ideological coherenceШаблон:Sndfell apart as an effective parliamentary alliance.Шаблон:Sfn In La Paz, the flight of ParedesШаблон:Sndaccosted on all sides by criminal cases and investigationsШаблон:Snd left the band of legislators elected under his watch to fend for themselves.Шаблон:Sfnm In the aftermath of the former prefect's exile, Sempértegui recalled: "I had to carry out my term practically alone".Шаблон:Sfn
In legislation, Sempértegui's tenure made headwinds in the development of children's rights law. She was the main drafter behind a 2011 bill aimed at the prevention of school violence.Шаблон:Sfn Its contents were later incorporated into the more wide-ranging Child and Adolescent Code,Шаблон:Sfn enacted in 2014, near the end of her term.Шаблон:Sfn Sempértegui promoted similar legislation in her capacity as a representative to the Latin American Parliament, where she also elaborated a proposal for the creation of a regionwide network for the protection of child laborers.Шаблон:Sfn
Absent their political benefactor, Sempértegui and other Paredes allies were not nominated for reelection come the 2014 elections.Шаблон:Sfn A similar instance occurred with many of the lawmakers elected under the influence of Manfred Reyes VillaШаблон:SndCN's other political leader-turned-fugitive.Шаблон:Sfn
