Business ProfileforMichael Westra: Allstate Insurance

I moved to this area in 1981 when I was 18 years old. No one in my family had ever attended college, but I knew it was the path I needed to take. I left my family on the East Coast and started driving across the country in hopes of being accepted into the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. I’m proud to say the reward far outweighed the risk and I’m a UNLV alum! Overnight, Henderson became home for me, and I opened my Henderson agency in 2003. Having lived here for a long time, I understand the concerns and desires of the people in this community and find a sense of fulfillment in getting to work with my friends and neighbors. Giving back to my community is important to me. I’m a part of the Henderson Chamber of Commerce and support Leadership Henderson which is a professional development program under the chamber umbrella. I graduated Leadership Henderson in 2006 and sat on the board from 2007 to 2012 finishing as the Chairman. Additionally, I support Foothill High School football. I look forward to continuing my assistance of these organizations and serving others as well. When you come into my agency, you’ll find a knowledgeable and dedicated team. We’re a referral-only agency and feel proud that we have grown organically by the work we do.
