Cristina Loprete
Patient Advocacy Consultant
Professional Aspirations
After earning her diploma in languages, Cristina completed a degree in International Relations – her goal was to become an Ambassador – followed by a degree in Social and Institutional Communication, captivated by the world of communication and political marketing. She enhanced her studies with a Master’s in Corporate Communication and took her first steps by working in the press and communication offices of the public administration. This led to her most significant professional experience so far with an international humanitarian organization, where she spent over ten years working in communication, events, corporate affairs, fundraising, public relations, and brand management.
Born in the town of Maida, Cristina has adopted Tuscany as her home and is an avid traveler at heart. She studied in Siena, which she always keeps close to her heart, and is building her home (in the romantic sense of the word) in Florence with her husband Domenico and daughters Giulia and Anna. Their home is complete with a large table and a huge sofa to welcome hugs and smiles from friends.
