Do's and Don'ts in the Audition Room / Self-Tape

Conversations with Alya Lei

Our guest is Karina Ruth Walters, who is a proud member of the Casting Society of America (CSA) and has 15 years of casting experience (including S.W.A.T., UnREAL, Burn Notice, The Shield, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: Out of the Shadows, The Watch). She has worked as a full Casting Director since 2012 and prior to that, she was a Casting Associate, honing her craft with some of the top Casting Directors in the business.

In early 2018 Karina began working with Revolution Financial Management. It was her desire to help actors and other creative professionals, who often struggle with fluctuating incomes and the lack of company retirement plans, that first ignited her passion for helping others get on track financially, though you certainly don't have to be in a creative field to enlist her help!

Based on her own experience, she saw the importance of educating Americans on the fundamental principles of building wealth, believing that everyone, regardless of income or background, should have increased financial literacy. For the past 3 years, she has made it her mission to help people plan for a greater quality of life by learning about and implementing basic but powerful financial concepts.
