"We all have stories for a reason, and if we keep them to ourselves, I don't feel they would help anybody."
"I get inspiration from literally everything and anything. I take inspiration from people, relationships, stories, and I take inspiration from movies I see, books I read and songs I hear."
"Honestly I'm not a huge TV person. The only show that I've seen every episode of is 'Pretty Little Liars.' It's my favorite show. I wish I could get into other shows, but I just don't have time!"
"My favorite thing before going to school was watching 'Full House,' 'Sabrina the Teenage Witch,' and 'Boy Meets World.'"
"The first songs I learned was 'Crazy' by Patsy Cline and 'At Last' by Etta James. I had been growing up with the Beatles, Pink Floyd, great bands."
"Singing is about telling a story. When you are onstage, you get to be your own self... When acting, you're someone else."
"My first inspiration for acting came from the first episode of 'Hannah Montana.' That's when I knew I wanted to be a singer and an actress."
"I have always looked up to Adele and Christina Aguilera as singers ever since I was very young, and now my favorite male singer is Hozier."
"I feel like the more I work on different songs and the more I work on my voice constantly... I always feel better after I post a cover. Even if it's doing the little 15 second covers, I'm working on my craft, and it's really good for me, and I feel good after I do it."
"I've always wanted a 'Full House' reunion, so when you see stuff like this comes back, it's super exciting."
"When I was growing up, we went to Musikfest every year, and I have vivid memories of the corn on the cob. I'm going for the concert, but I'm really going for the corn."
"Music is where I started. It's kind of the base of everything."

"I've never had to fend for a child's life, which sounds very terrifying."
"I'm not quite sure how I would do babysitting."
"I loved all of the 'Zenon' movies. Those were my jam mostly because of the fashion. I loved something about the space buns and the weird neon colors. I couldn't just wear that in real life because people would look weirdly at me, but maybe at a party or something."
"Truly, with a sitcom and the rhythms of comedy... music is so helpful in that area of life."
"It always feels good to put something you're proud of out in the world."
"There are a lot of things that people go through, and maybe they don't know how to get through it, and maybe you do, and if you have some sort of knowledge or power, share with the world."
"Time will heal everything."
"That's just a symbol of how you should deal with a breakup. You can cry for a little bit, eat some ice cream, but I think, after that, it's like, get up, listen to some powerful music and do something that makes you happy, be productive."
"I think the song itself, 'Smoke and Fire,' is just a metaphor for the feelings that you feel in a relationship."
