Ana María Sempértegui

Ana María Sempértegui Valdez (born 15 December 1958) is a Bolivian accountant and politician who served as a party-list member of the Chamber of Deputies from La Paz from 2010 to 2015.

Sempértegui was born into a mining family native to Potosí. She graduated as an accountant from Tomás Frías University and worked in the administrative area of the Potosí Development Corporation from the mid- to late 1980s. Following a brief retirement to focus on family, Sempértegui returned to the private sector, now in the city of La Paz. She held administrative and financial positions at various companies from 1995 to 2000 and 2008 to 2009.

In 2000, Sempértegui was hired as a minor public official in the El Alto municipal government. She became a close confidant to José Luis Paredes, 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 included Sempértegui on National Convergence's parliamentary list in 2009 as part of his quota of candidates. Given his exile, she was not re-nominated in 2014.
