Our story

Our mission is simple...to help build, protect and preserve the wealth of our clients

Red Oak Financial Asset Management was founded on a simple belief: that every family deserves a financial partner who listens first, plans carefully, and stays by their side for the long haul.

Why We Do What We Do

Our clients are not account numbers. They are neighbors, business owners, teachers, and retirees who have worked hard and deserve a plan that reflects their real lives, their real goals, and their real concerns.

We take that responsibility seriously. Every recommendation we make is grounded in your whole picture — not just your portfolio.

What Guides Us

Three values shape everything we do — how we plan, how we communicate, and how we show up for our clients.

Growth

We believe in continuous improvement — for our clients' financial lives and for ourselves as advisors. Growth is not just a financial goal; it is a mindset we bring to every conversation.

Gratitude

We are grateful for the trust our clients place in us. That gratitude drives us to show up prepared, present, and genuinely invested in their success.

Responsibility

We hold ourselves accountable to the highest standards of care. When you share your financial life with us, we treat that as a privilege — and we act accordingly.

Our Approach

Financial planning is not a one-time event. It is an ongoing relationship built on honest conversations, careful analysis, and a willingness to adapt as life changes.

We take a holistic view — looking at investments, taxes, retirement income, estate planning, and protection strategies together, not in isolation. Because the decisions you make in one area always affect the others.

Our process starts with listening. We want to understand what matters most to you before we ever talk about numbers. From there, we build a plan that is clear, actionable, and designed to grow with you.

Meet the Team

With over 85 years of combined experience, our team is committed to putting the needs of our clients first.

Steven Straseske

Retirement Specialist

You will be able to tell from my accent that I'm from up North. I was born and grew up in Reeseville, WI. My wife Ann and I moved to Texas in 1980 to start a new chapter — I had been in management with a life and health insurance company and wanted to spend less time on the road, more time with family, and help people in the local community. That's when I decided to start a personal financial practice. Ann and I now have two sons and a daughter and five grandchildren — all boys. Life is full and we feel very blessed.

Adam Straseske, CMT

Financial Planner

Dedicated to helping clients accomplish what they want. I started in the investment business in 1999, witnessed two bear markets and learned from both, and earned the Chartered Market Technician (CMT) certification in 2011. I co-authored "Home Run Financial Planning" with Steve Straseske, my father. I operate under a fiduciary standard and an independent service model, and I bring experience across all areas of personal finance — with a humble, curious, and grateful approach.
