Biography edit

Gasperoni was born on 23 September 1961[1] in City of San Marino.[2] She attended the University of Bologna in Italy where she received a degree in law.[1] She later attended the law school and received a master's degree in administrative law.[1] In the 1990s, she worked professionally in Emilia-Romagna as a lawyer and notary.[1]

In 1995, Gasperoni was appointed the head of Ufficio Programmazione Economica e Centro Elaborazione Dati e Statistica [it], the economic planning, data processing and statistics office of San Marino.[1] She served in the role through 2003 before receiving a position in 2004 with the Department of Foreign Affairs.[1] She then was the director of the Labor Office from 2005 to 2012 and was director of the San Marino Centro di Formazione Professionale [it] from 2012 to 2023.[1]

Gasperoni was appointed to the Grand and General Council in May 2015 to fill a vacancy caused by the resignations of Claudio Felici and Stefano Macina [it], serving until the 2016 election and being a member of the Party of Socialists and Democrats (PSD).[3][4] As a member of the council, Gasperoni helped draft several bills, including bills on trademarks and patents and regulating the labor market.[1]

In October 2023, Gasperoni was appointed to the council for a second time, replacing the resigning Giacomo Simoncini.[5][6] She became a member of the commissions on constitutional affairs and finance.[1] In March 2024, Gasperoni was narrowly elected, along with Alessandro Rossi, as one of two Captains Regent (head of government), which was seen as a surprise as she was nominated by the opposition alliance, Noi per la Repubblica (We for the Republic).[7][8]
