Allstate Insurance Agent Mike Seifer, Henderson, NV

I have called Henderson home since 1979 and have seen the general Las Vegas area explode from a "sleepy" 350,000-person town to a metropolitan area with about 2.2 million people. Henderson shows a unique side of this area — a small-town atmosphere with a big city mentality.

This is a magnificent desert community that's great for raising a family. I should know — I raised two step daughters and helped raise two now-grown granddaughters here. My current wife and I are now raising our own young daughters. We love that Henderson offers wonderful parks, churches, schools, beautiful mountain hiking and golf courses, which I try to hit at least twice a week. It's one of my passions, along with scuba diving. I'm also an avid cruiser. I have taken 53 cruises around the world — to Alaska and Norway, around the Caribbean and even to the Arctic Circle.

My office is very much a part of the community, and I've enjoyed working with customers since 1987. I love high school sports and am an active three-sport referee year round. This helps me connect with my community and I have met many customers by just being out on various courts and fields.

Because I have my own agency with my brother, no matter where we go, we stay engaged and accountable to customers. I love the flexibility and lifestyle my job affords me, but I also have the integrity and efficiency to get the job done for you.
