After Following Florencia Aguilar for a couple of year on LinkedIn, i thought it was finally time to invite as a guest.

They deeply believe in collaboration to find the most accurate and fair terminology and ways of expression to address situations that involve gender-related matters.

Gyokhan Hamdi in his own words:
“I'm an ambitious languages and technology enthusiast who has found his way into the entrepreneurial world after over five years of experience in the translation and localization industry.
I've worked as a freelance translator and project manager. I've ultimately decided to combine the industry knowledge I've acquired over the years with my passion for languages and my multicultural background.
It all materialized in my translation company called Transleet, where we work daily with tens of experienced native language specialists to deliver human-quality language services and where we put humans first, and value relationships.
My cultural background and my studies have allowed me to develop a great feeling for languages in general and learn five languages proficiently.
I now speak English, French, Dutch, Bulgarian and Turkish.”

I started going to the dentist early in life – like everybody else, right?
However, my history with these professionals is more intense than you can imagine – from 10 to 23 I visited the dentist about 2-3 times a week – 13 sets of braces, 5 surgeries, fake teeth in my early twenties… No, I don’t hate these people! Quite the opposite and that is also why it was so amazing to talk to Mario!
