I didn't grow up in one place, so I never had a certain mentality. I have some aspects of growing up in Texas, but I also have a lot of East Coast family. I would have loved to grow up on the East Coast.

My brother plays guitar and base and writes. His name is Chase Ryan.

You can't force music; It just has to come to you.

With 'Suite Life,' I had three years to sit a little bit on the back burner and learn with less pressure.

I can look back at things I've done and said and worn and be completely humiliated by them, but I can never say it wasn't me. I feel really honored to say that.

I remember going to acting class, so certain that no one's ever going to know my name.

You won't ever be totally gotten by any human. That's part of the fun.
