Meet Michael J. Reisel
|
Adaptive by nature, Mike founded Redwood Financial Strategies to evolve the traditional financial advising experience. He wanted to create something different—an environment where clients feel informed, confident, and cared for in ways they may never have before.
Mike’s inspiration came from seeing how financial instability impacts people’s well-being.
Recognizing that financial literacy is rarely taught, he made it his mission to bring clarity through informational resources, guidance, and dedication. His background in teaching and management allows him to simplify complex financial concepts and help clients feel confident in their decisions.
He thrives on seeing the transformation in his clients once financial stress no longer keeps them up at night. Helping people regain confidence and purpose is what drives him—because to Mike, the more individuals who reach that point, the stronger the community becomes.
With more than a decade of business experience across multiple financial disciplines, Mike takes pride in problem-solving and delivering results that improve both financial and personal outcomes.
He believes doing what’s right for the client always comes first—money comes and goes, but
integrity lasts. That philosophy fuels his commitment to continual improvement and lasting
relationships.
Redwood’s limited membership model allows Mike to serve as each member’s personal financial concierge—reviewing, advising, and acting without ever pushing products. His goal is simple: to help clients achieve their financial objectives while cultivating happiness and gratitude along the way.
Mike earned his bachelor’s degree in education from the University of Wisconsin–Whitewater, is Advanced Silver Sandler Certified, and holds his Series 6, 63, 65, 7, and 24 securities licenses.
Outside the office, Mike enjoys life with his wife, Mindy, their two children, Hayden and Cole, and their dogs, Molly and Cooper. Together, they love the outdoors—hiking, hunting, spending time on the water, and traveling to experience as much of the world as possible.
