You probably set a root password during install.
The Debian Installer will configure 'sudo' for the first user only if
you leave the root password blank. This is explained during the install.
If you want to use sudo even if you did set a root password on Debian
this can be very easily done with:
adduser jerry sudo
(assuming your username is jerry, of course)
Kind regards,
Andrei
