I’m Tami Jelinek, and I proudly represent State Farm throughout Las Vegas, North Las Vegas, Henderson, Summerlin, and surrounding Nevada communities. My office is conveniently located at the corner of Lake Mead and Buffalo in Las Vegas, and I help individuals and families across Nevada while also assisting customers with insurance needs in neighboring states, including California, Oregon, Utah, and Arizona.
My State Farm journey spans more than 24 years. I began as a team member in Oregon, became an agent there, and later served as a Developmental Agent Field Specialist supporting agents across Oregon, Washington, Montana, and Hawaii before relocating to Nevada in 2012 to open my agency. Today, my team brings more than 58 years of combined insurance experience to the customers we serve.
Neighborhood Talk
Giving back has always been important to me, and I’m proud to serve as a donation drop-off site for Project 150. We collect gently used clothing, shoes, and hygiene products that help support homeless high school students in Las Vegas and Henderson. If you have items in good condition you’d like to donate, we’d love to see you stop by and help make a difference in our community.
My Experience and Approach
I genuinely love working with my customers and building long-term relationships with the people and families who put confidence in us for their insurance needs. Insurance can feel overwhelming at times, so I focus on providing clear, practical guidance that helps you understand your options and make informed decisions.
Whether you're reviewing your Auto Insurance, Home Insurance, Life Insurance, or other coverage needs, I take the time to understand what matters most to you and explain how different coverage options may fit your situation. I also believe personal service still matters, which is why you can always reach a real person when questions come up.
As a Chartered Special Needs Specialist (ChSNC), I have a special focus on helping families with special needs prepare for the future and understand the insurance and financial considerations that may support their long-term goals.
Coverage Options I Help With
In my agency, I work with customers who need a variety of insurance products, including:
-Auto Insurance
-Motorcycle Insurance
-Recreational Vehicle Insurance
-Home Insurance
-Condo Insurance
-Renters Insurance
-Rental Dwelling Insurance
-Pet Insurance
-Business Insurance
-Life Insurance
-Health Insurance
Whether you are protecting your home, your vehicles, your family, or your small business, my team and I are here to help you explore your options and make confident choices.
If you are moving to Las Vegas or another Nevada community, I can help make the transition easier by assisting with out-of-state transfers and coverage updates.
Expertise With State Farm Products
I focus on helping customers better understand insurance for everyday life, including their vehicles, homes, assets, and liability concerns. Using State Farm resources along with my years of experience, I explain coverage options in a way that is customized to your needs rather than giving one-size-fits-all answers.
If you're not sure where to begin, I'm happy to help identify the areas that may be worth reviewing first.
Local Reputation and Community Involvement
Supporting the community is important to me. In addition to serving as a Project 150 donation site, I proudly support the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) and other local efforts that strengthen our community.
Family is also a big part of who I am. My husband Scott and I enjoy spending time with our growing family, including my sons Hayden and Devon, my daughters-in-law Kelly and Fiona, and my bonus sons Jack and Evan. Devon is also part of our agency team. Outside of work, you'll often find me attending Aviators games, cooking, gardening, hiking, traveling, or enjoying live music and sporting events.

Q: What kind of insurance do I need for a leased vehicle?

Q: What does renters insurance cover?
A: Renters insurance helps protect the things you own if something unexpected happens.
