Team

We are berns language consulting.

Kerstin Berns learned the profession from scratch. As a manager in several automotive companies, she recognized the requirements for efficient multilingual text processes at an early stage. In 2005, she decided to set up her own company. Together with her team of committed and specialized experts, she has firmly established herself on the market. We are a strong team, not only reliable and professionally experienced, but also with enthusiasm and passion: This is what customers appreciate about blc.

Kerstin Berns.

Managing partner & strategy consultant

When I worked for the automotive industry, I regularly sought objective advice for language processes – without success!
That made me think: Why not offer such advice yourself?

I quit my job at BMW, founded my company and was rewarded: berns language consulting has been successfully advising large and medium-sized international companies objectively and independently for over 18 years!
Not least thanks to a great team of experts, I love my work and am grateful for every successful year.

Jenny Seidel.

Terminology management & language process consultant

Getting the language processes in the field of terminology management and language quality around is my mission.
The goal is to ensure that terminology and quality assurance work hand in hand to ensure optimal translation processes for the client. I like to dive into the world of terms myself in order to keep the terminology database at a constantly high level. Already during my studies in the field of language, communication and specialist translation, I was able to express my enthusiasm for linguistics.

Elias Kempkens.

Data analysis & programming

The topics of data, software and innovative technologies have always been of great interest to me! That’s why I put a special focus on this in my bachelor’s degree in computer science and business administration. I am currently in the master’s degree in computer science. Since October 2020, I support the blc team as a working student in the areas of software development, data cleansing and statistical data analysis with a focus on data in natural language.

Stephanie Kunz-Kiefer.

Marketing & Social Media

Even before my studies as a translator, I had a special affinity for languages and during my master’s degree in “Terminology & language technology” it was not only reinforced, but also extended to include another aspect, the technical side. For a long time, I have been fascinated by the language on social media and how to achieve a greater reach. At blc, I can combine language with new knowledge, providing linguistic and analytical support to the team and, above all, to the marketing and social media sectors.

Sophia Ackermann.

Computational linguistics

I have always had an interest in language in general and an affinity for learning new languages. But it was only through my interdisciplinary master’s degree in general and applied linguistics and the Digital Humanities at the University of Würzburg that my interest in innovative technologies for processing natural language was awakened. Since October, I support blc and customers at the interface between man and machine.
