Aysel Gökbas (Minzi)

Aysel Gökbas, born in 1981 in Plettenberg, is a woman of many talents: a happily married mother of two, an e-commerce entrepreneur, and a successful comedian under her stage name Minzi. Since 2016 she has delighted hundreds of thousands of fans with her videos, and in 2019 she won the Mediafluence Award for best comedy.

She lives by the conviction that you should pursue your dreams and never let anyone tell you that you can't do something, especially as a woman. Despite the challenges she once faced with illiteracy, which cost her an internship placement, today she is successfully writing a book of her own. Her life motto: keep going, and never let anyone dictate what is right or wrong.
