Growing up, Ryan Keely admits she was always thinking about sex. Ever since she could remember, Keely enjoyed reading about and researching sex, reading Dan Savage's advice column and listening to his radio show. When she was 18, Keely moved from her hometown of Seattle to San Diego and began working at a Hustler store. While there, Keely met adult star Haley Paige when she was purchasing a copy of her own video. Paige gave Keely contacts to get started in the industry, and Keely jumped at the opportunity.

Career
Ryan Keely got her start in adult entertainment as a production assistant on movies. In 2006 at the age of 22, Keely finally decided to step in front of the camera and begin performing. Keely's prior sexual history with women and enthusiasm for lesbian sex led to her decision to be solely a girl-girl performer. Keely has filmed with top studios like Girlfriends Films, Sweetheart Video, and Zero Tolerance Entertainment. When Keely isn't filming, she is an advice columnist for Penthouse magazine, in addition to her title at the publication as Penthouse Pet.
