He began making films at the age of seven. A founding partner of Steele Films in 2000, Muller shifted his focus to feature-length motion pictures after eight years directing television commercials, completing a number of original screenplays with his producer, Laura Boersma.

Indiscretion stars Academy Award winner Mira Sorvino, Cary Elwes, Christopher Backus, Katherine McNamara, and Melora Walters. Its world broadcast premiere was July 23, 2016 on Lifetime.
