Connecting the community to its creatives.
That is our mission.
There are many talented artists right here in the city of Cincinnati.
They are students, bar tenders, freelancers, educators, engineers, and some even work at your local Apple store. We see them improving our daily lives while knowing very little about who they are and what they do. They are in our communities inspiring others, building networks, and changing lives through a single shared passion, music.
With my series, I hope to build a stronger and deeper connection between the community and the amazing creatives within it. My short documentary videos highlight our neighbors, co-workers, friends, and family members that make up Cincinnati’s diverse music scene and is pushing the culture forward, and I share their stories so that we can all make new discoveries about our communities and about each other.

"Episode 53 features special guest Ciara Cruder, creator of Mind The Method video docu-series that covers the Cincinnati hip hop scene. We were blown away by the quality of the content in Season 1 and Season 2, which culminated in a finale with our friends Patterns of Chaos. We had to get to know the woman behind the camera, so we invited her to Timeless to tell her story."

Why Creative People Burn Out
"There's something about our world that makes us want to always be hustling; always be working; and always be burning out. Creative burn out is common because doing what we love becomes about proving ourselves. I sit down with my fellow creator and talk about what drives us and why we feel this pressure all the time."
