About Your Host, Jonelle Klein
The Faces of Sedona and the Verde Valley is a passion project for Jonelle Klein, a top Realtor® in Sedona, AZ. Jonelle is an expert matchmaker, liaison, and envoy for unique individuals and the stories they tell. As a life-long human ambassador in every professional role she has played to date, Jonelle utilizes her own resources, from the heart, to help knit the story of her community in Sedona by introducing the people that make it what it is. By lending a spotlight to one voice and one face at a time, Jonelle's work not only embraces neighboring communities, but also influences parts of the world that are unaware of the individualism, artistry, and magic that lies at the bedrock of crimson hue.
Jonelle is accompanied by her husband Larry, and their three loyal companions. Residents of Sedona for over a decade, Jonelle, Larry, and their dogs made the move to the desert from wine country, relocating from Napa Valley, CA. Jonelle completed her studies along the Northern coast in California, earning a degree in Sociology: the study of human and societal functioning.
In beginning her career as an elementary school teacher, Jonelle was recruited one summer to join a renowned recruitment firm in the Silicon Valley, where she served as an Executive Recruiter for the years following. Through successfully placing top-tier professionals in their dream jobs at the epicenter of technological innovation, Jonelle acquired acute negotiation and communication skills that naturally contributed to her success as a soon-to-be real estate agent.
Following her move to Sedona, Jonelle entered a new career as a Realtor® at Coldwell Banker Realty. Her commitment in her real estate business is to serve people through homes. She lives by the motto, "Live what you love", and for Jonelle, The Faces of Sedona and the Verde Valley is an extension of the love and commitment she has for the people who reside beside her.
