As a member of Done Deal Solutions' acquisition team, I reach out to local sellers and listing agents that are working with short sale real estate transactions. DDS purchases homes that are in short sale and which meet their investment guidelines. With a strong closing rate of upward of 75-80%, DDS provides one of the best solutions for sellers who are looking to get out from what has become unmanageable debt. Contact me for a private meeting on whether your property may be a fit for our portfolio. Contracts from DDS pay for all seller closing costs and there are no fees paid to the company for negotiating the short sale, unlike many firms who are out there charging only for the negotiating portion of a sale.

FEAR is a documentary project co-founded with Tim Matsui combining photo and radio journalism in a video production to tell personal stories of surviving sexual assault or to document a field related to the care of survivors. The purpose of the project is to spark dialog which will help build an understanding and compassionate community less likely to silence survivors.
Each story is a 'chapter' intended as part of an overarching production for the editorial and advocacy markets. The FEAR Project does not limit its activities to documenting stories of sexual violence for educational media. Material is licensable for editorial print, web, radio, and video outlets. FEAR also offers speaking engagements, provides print or multimedia exhibitions, can conduct portrait or documentary work in conjunction with exhibitions, and offers fine art prints and associated FEAR products.
