We’re Your Niche Team.
Don’t be fooled by Karly Nielsen’s easy demeanor and warm charm—she is one of the fiercest and grittiest people you will ever meet. Whether it’s running the local elementary PTA, tackling community issues, negotiating a hard-fought contract or managing her family of six, she is a woman who can get things done. Nothing falls through the cracks with Karly, and she has a superhuman ability to get people to do (and succeed at) things they otherwise wouldn’t. Karly and her family have moved all over the United States and together have mastered the art of moving and connecting with people from all walks of life. She currently resides in the Yalecrest Neighborhood and can’t say enough good things about this family-friendly community.

Grab a Diet Coke and try to keep up with Kristin! This lady wrote the book on multitasking and is halfway through her checklist by the time most of us hit the snooze button. She is proud to be a born-and-raised South Jordaner and a Daybreak resident since 2006. With a BA in accounting from Southern Utah University and a career in the corporate finance sector, she is known for her uncanny attention to detail and being a whiz at numbers and negotiations. Her clients have included residential land developers, contractors and home builders. She can’t stress enough how important it is for those with a new construction contract to have a competent Realtor on their side during the entire process. Nothing makes Kristin happier than helping a client visualize, design and build a functionally beautiful home. When she’s not rocking the real estate world or raising four amazing humans, you can find her entertaining, traveling, enjoying the outdoors, volunteering, reading, and obsessing over interior design details.

Hard working, detailed and creative, Mele Brown knows how to make things happen. Born in Long Beach, California, Mele learned at an early age to be independent and navigate the course of her own future. She is adept at expressing what she needs, and experience has taught her that communication is the cornerstone to solving any problem. Mele goes the extra mile to involve and inform her clients in every step of the home buying or selling process. You’ll often hear her say, “I’ll do whatever it takes to help my clients.” And she means exactly that. She pulls out all the staging, marketing and negotiating stops to make sure her clients get exactly what they want. This includes working as a buyer representative in new construction, an oft overlooked (but critical) part of building a new home. Mele has lived in various areas of the Salt Lake Valley, but now calls Bluffdale, Utah home. She loves her Bluffdale neighbors and can’t think of a better community to have built her dream home. Mele is married with two children. She is also a member of the Polynesian Autism Awareness group based out of Salt Lake City which spans to several states giving support to families with autistic children.

Marie Jefferies has reason to be grounded. Raised by adventurous parents, her childhood was filled with trips to Utah’s many wondrous places. She carried wonder with her to college where she received a BS in Anthropology and a Masters in Social Work from the University of Utah. For years, she worked with adults with disabilities and children in foster care. Most recently, she has been teaching her two sons to savor each day and take every opportunity for outdoor adventure. Her love for the outdoors is only equalled by her gentle temperament. She has a knack of putting anyone at ease, especially if you find yourself on the other side of her lens. Marie is proud of being a Utah native and lifelong Salt Laker and is an enthusiastic ambassador of her hometown. When she’s not forging the trails and scenic byways of Utah’s National Parks (Capitol Reef is her favorite, by the way), you can find Marie exploring the shores of Maine or California, and hiking, camping and skiing every chance she gets.

Suzanne Kingsford’s heart is firmly rooted in Salt Lake soil. She grew up in the Foothill neighborhood, graduated from East High and received her bachelor's degree from the University of Utah in English with a minor in Spanish and a teaching certificate. She spent three years daring middle school classrooms before shifting to online teaching and coaching. Her time has since been spent raising three children, teaching to piano students of all ages, and traveling the world coaching companies like Deloitte. Chances are you’ve seen Suzanne in the cheering section at her family’s many games and musical events. Or you’ve met her volunteering at Clayton, Indian Hills, or Bonneville, where she also teaches music once a week. When she’s not getting things done to the soundtrack of an audiobook, you can find her running, skiing or dreaming up her next world adventure.

Smart as a whip and creative as all get out, Alison Jacobsen may have operated a Cricut machine before she took her first steps. She has been mastering the art of gifting and crafting for years and holds a BS from BYU in home and family living with an emphasis in interior design. When she's not taking care of her four young children or running a successful Etsy shop, she's packaging delightful client gifts and putting the final touches on our home staging. In her sometimes hard-to-find spare moments she runs, paddle boards and savors days on the lake with her family.
