🎙️ Today’s podcast episode gets a little furry! While my dog Dion quietly makes himself known in the background, my guest Kerttu Karon gets a surprise visit from her cat right in the middle of our recording. 🐶🐱

Born and raised in Estonia, Kerttu brings a lovely European flair to this episode as we talk about her journey into acting and how it eventually led her to Los Angeles ten years ago. Her very first role in a vertical series? A banquet scene right away — so she immediately knew what kind of industry she was stepping into. 😉

To balance out the stress and fast pace of filming, the certified yoga teacher teaches yoga classes whenever her schedule allows. 🧘🏼‍♀️✨

Kerttu is incredibly grateful for every opportunity she gets as an actress. From playing villains to portraying the complete opposite, she has already explored many different characters. Why does she often get cast as the villain? She believes her slightly cooler European accent may have something to do with it. Still, she would absolutely love to play more warm-hearted and lovable characters in the future. 🎭

As a true family person, she would also love to shoot more projects in Europe to stay closer to her loved ones — and ideally combine that with deeper storylines and stronger character development. ❤️

We talk about all of this and so much more from the vertical space in today’s episode.

Enjoy listening! 🎧
