Cast

Hey! I’m Dugan. I’ve been acting and doing radio drama since the age of 12 and am honored to be a part of this project. I’ve been so privileged to play characters in such productions as: Adventures in Odyssey, Left Behind, and Left Behind: The Kids, I’ve been able to act in both dramatic and comedic roles for audiences large and small, as well as had the experience of working in a number of post-production roles pertaining to radio drama.

I am so excited for The Jake Muller Adventures and to be able to play the character of Jake! I believe the medium of story is one of the most powerful things we can experience and can’t wait to see how the story of Jake comes to life not only through the various character he encounters, but through the significance and lessons he learns through all his experiences.

Currently, I live right outside of Madison, Wisconsin and make a point to wear my Chicago Cubs, Bears, and Bulls attire as much as possible. I’m married to Lindsay who loves God and is hot (really the only two things I cared about) and we have two crazy-awesome kids, Eva (6) and Phoenix (2). I get to work part-time at a church and am a stay-at-home dad the rest of the time, both of which I love.

Hi friends! I’m Christian, and I’m an actor, singer, musician and model from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Over the course of my career, I have had the opportunity to work with some of the most talented people on the planet, and the cast of the Jake Muller Adventures was no exception. I could not have been more blessed to be a part of this project in bringing Nate Hamel to life. Most of my acting experience up until this point was in the on-camera realm, but voice-over has always been a passion of mine, so I am especially excited for you all to hear this amazing project! Outside of acting, I am obsessed with all things fitness, so if I’m not in the studio or rocking my corporate America job as an HR Leader, you will probably find me in the weight room…lifting very small weights. Cheers!
