Marta Gabriela Michetti Illia (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈmarta ɣaˈβɾjela miˈketi]; born May 28, 1965) is an Argentine politician and current Vice President of Argentina since December 10, 2015. She is the second woman to serve as Vice President of Argentina after Isabel Martínez de Perón.
Michetti is member of the Republican Proposal (PRO) and Cambiemos (Let's change) coalition. She was Deputy Head of Government in Buenos Aires from 2009 to 2013 during the first tenure of Mayor Mauricio Macri and served as Senator for Buenos Aires since 2013 to 2016.
She is great-grandniece of former President of Argentina, Dr. Arturo Illia.
Marta Gabriela Michetti Illia was born in 1965 in the Buenos Aires Province town of Laprida. She earned a degree in International Relations at the Universidad del Salvador, Buenos Aires, in 1988. She completed a master's degree in Business Management and Integration in the UCES between 1993-1994 plus a specialization course on dispute settlement in the WTO, in Geneva, Switzerland in 2000; and a career specialization in University Management at the University of Ottawa, Canada in 2001.
Michetti entered public service in 1989 in the Province of Buenos Aires, and the following year joined the executive staff as a technical adviser at the Argentine Ministry of Economy. Although employed as a professional rather than as a politician, Michetti was political, working through her church on social projects and becoming close to Carlos Auyero of the Christian Democratic Party and FrePaSo.
