Born, Dustin Anthony Serrano, on August 24th 1984, in Reno Nevada, to Richard Serrano, a postal worker and Tina Serrano, a Nurse. His grandfather, William Ardine, was a WWII veteran in the Air Force, who on his deathbed gave Dustin permission to use his last name in order to carry on his lineage. Ardine's recent ancestry includes Italian (where his grandfather was born in Abruzzi), & Romanian (one of Ardine's maternal great-grandmothers from Romania.)
Ardine's parents divorced in 1988 when he was only 4. He spent his early years moving back and forth between households, catching the acting bug early as a way to escape his home life. He started performing in musicals and theatre shows in school and with local acting companies. Ardine's thirst for knowledge and drive to be the very best actor he could be lead him to study all the greatest industry teachers. He studied at the renowned Academy of Art University under the tutelage of Hollywood leading lady Diane Baker, and at the famed New York Film Academy in Los Angeles.
At the age of 14 Dustin started training as a professional wrestler and stuntman. Being trained by the legendary Dory Funk Jr., as well as "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles. Ardine has wrestled all over the USA.

Ardine's first lead role in a feature film was at only 21 years of age, in the independent horror film "Day of the Axe". Ardine has recently been seen starring in the Award Winning feature film "Ariadne", as Rose in the well-received Chinese feature film "Los Angeles Kidnapping", as the male lead in the short horror film "Birth" which was screened at the world famous Cannes Film Festival in 2018, and as the male lead in the feature film "Death Club" (2023) which is available to watch on many streaming platforms.
