“I was raised to volunteer: nursing homes, clinics, church nurseries, school, eve…” — Debby Ryan

I want people to know that I won't just assume that people will like my music.

I'm not making music for people who like Disney shows. I make music for people who like music.

I went through a few phases of finding myself: I dabbled in musical theater, chess club, dance troupe, splatter-painting, school mascot (go Wildcats), babysitter, photojournalist, drill team girl, emo kid - and not one of them defined me, but every single one will always play a part in who I am.

Hi. My name is Debby, and I am a storyteller. I don't think of myself as an actress. I am more like a face that takes words on a page, and puts them in front of your eyes.
