About Michael J. Nedreski, CRPC®

Hi, I'm Michael Nedreski, Founder and Managing Partner at White Oak Wealth Partners.

I began my financial services career in 1988, laying the foundation for what would eventually become White Oak Wealth Partners—a comprehensive, independent wealth management firm known for its strategic retirement income planning and generational wealth advisory services.

My journey started in the insurance field, where I quickly distinguished myself through a combination of practical experience, continuous self-education, and mentorship. Over the years, I steadily broadened my expertise, earning the Chartered Retirement Planning Counselor (CRPC®) designation and building a holistic approach to financial planning.

In 2012, I partnered professionally with my wife, Amy Nedreski, further strengthening the firm's family-centered philosophy. Our affiliation with LPL Financial in 2015 significantly expanded our ability to provide robust financial tools and resources to our clients.

I am an active member of the Financial Services Institute (FSI), the Financial Planning Association (FPA), and the prestigious Forum 400, which recognizes top insurance professionals nationally. I am regarded as a leader in the field by peers both locally and across the country.

Faith and purpose are central to my life and Amy's. We credit all our success to God and strive to practice gratitude through service. Physical and mental well-being are also top priorities, as we believe strong personal health supports our ability to serve clients, family and community. Together, we passionately support numerous charitable organizations and firmly believe that success is a gift meant to be shared.

I am a truly grateful client of White Oak Wealth. I can't recommend Mike and Travis highly enough! They have a remarkable ability to make complex financial concepts easy to understand. As someone who isn't particularly well-versed in finance, I often felt overwhelmed when thinking about my investments and planning for the future. Mike and Travis take the time to patiently explain everything in clear, simple terms. No question ever feels too small or silly, and they ensure I fully understand my options before making any decisions. Their approach is not only professional but also incredibly supportive, and I feel much more confident about my financial future thanks to their guidance. If you are looking for knowledgeable, approachable financial advisors who sincerely care about your financial well-being, White Oak Wealth is the place to go!

I can't say enough about my outstanding financial advisors at White Oak! I recently retired (at only age 60) after 26 years and I feel incredibly supported by this team. They have taken care of me, my family and finances for many years and I trust them completely. I highly recommend everyone who wants to retire someday - no matter how far away - that they get a financial planner and team as great as Mike, Travis, Amy and Tiffany!

Highly Recommended!We initially began our retirement savings using traditional methods such as an employer 401k, money market, and savings accounts. These strategies were based solely on our own knowledge before partnering with White Oak Wealth Partners. While we were saving, we hadn't explored other options or resources to fully optimize our financial outcomes.White Oak Wealth Partners truly collaborated with us to grasp our personal and financial objectives. They crafted a customized plan tailored to our resources and timeline. They offered recommendations to optimize our returns and make our money work more effectively than we could manage on our own. They guided us through various options, including some unconventional ones, encouraging us to think outside the box. That's where the magic truly happens. The results are far greater than what we ever anticipated.My husband has been able to retire earlier than originally planned. With our current success and ongoing growth, we are now focusing on a more ambitious plan to expedite my retirement.Above all, Mike, Amy, Travis, and Tiffany operate a business that emphasizes building, nurturing, and valuing relationships. They extend this approach not only to their clients but also to the community. We look forward to continuing our relationship well into the future.

White Oak Wealth Partners was asked to administer the 401k plan with my employer many years ago. We would meet semi-annually to review my portfolio and make changes as retirement got near. Mike always shared his insight and opinion but always let me make my own decisions on any changes. Upon retirement, he offered some products which benefited our financial well-being. Even with the changes in the market, Mike and his staff have presented information which has always been favorable to our financial stability. We have and will continue to recommend them favorably.

My wife and I have been very happy with Mike Nedreski and the staff at White Oak Wealth Partners.Mike has looked after our investments for over thirty years. He has set us up into a sound investment program that aided us in putting our three children through college and establishing our investment program for retirement along with a very good the Long Term Care insurance program. The personal attention Mike, Amy, Tiffany and Travis always give to the concerns we may have over our investments is much appreciated . My wife and I highly recommend Mike and his White Oak team!

Entrusting our finances to White Oak Wealth Partners six years ago was one of the best decisions that we’ve ever made. Mike, Amy, Tiffany, and Travis are exceptional at what they do. They have taken the stress out of not just managing our finances in the here and now, but also planning for our secure future, and making sure we are structured to enjoy the life we are blessed to be living today. When you become their client, you become like family. You are not just another number in a laundry list of clients. Never have we felt rushed or like they are pressuring us into a plan that we are not comfortable with. From the get go, everything has been tailored specifically to our needs and comfort level. Not only do they explain everything in layman’s terms, but they are always working hard to customize our financial plan in a unique way to fit our particular goals and tax situation. They keep us current with the ever changing financial climate. Aside from their expertise in what they do, they are always very timely and professional with their correspondence. Whether it is in-person, by email, text, phone, video call, etc. , they are very prompt and respectful. With three college aged kids who are not cheap to support, WOW has helped us carry out our plan for supporting them and helping them to take off with their own futures, while still assuring we are postured for a healthy future of our own. It doesn’t matter where you are in the country or world, WOW’s got you and will make it happen. Also, we feel it is important to point out that WOW goes above and beyond with personal touches throughout the year in celebrating life’s special times with us. They truly care like family. WOW is a class act. One thing is for sure, we wouldn’t trust our family’s financial future to any other team. Our only regret is that we did not become clients sooner!

White Oak has helped me to feel confident with my future and investments. In a time when it is easy to think I could simply use “google answers” and figure out what I should be putting my money into, White Oak takes all the guess work out, and makes me confident in all that they do. Their staff is beyond helpful and friendly. I live out of state, yet they feel like they’re right down the street.

Mike, Amy, Tiffany and Travis have been invaluable to our family for many years. I’m not only referring to their skills regarding financial planning, or their over-the-top customer service but so many other things that can’t be measured in dollars and cents. Their friendship, caring, genuine concern, the joy they share, those little things they do…..that’s what sets them apart. They travel the journey with you - good and bad. Couldn’t give a higher recommendation than what we’d give White Oak Wealth Partners.

My husband and I were at a crossroads regarding financial advisors. Ours had recently changed jobs, and we made a decision to interview four advisors before transferring any funds. Mike Nedreski and Travis Bert met with us in March 2023. We walked out of that initial meeting knowing they were our choice. Over the next few months, they assisted us with every aspect of our financial planning. We’ve now been with White Oak Wealth for over a year. Mike, Travis, and Tiffany are very attentive to any requests. We meet often for financial reviews. We’ve been educated in so many different options when doing estate planning. I have complete confidence in my advisors. Additionally, I’m impressed with the many charitable events they sponsor or engage in throughout our community. They do good deeds! Without hesitation, we recommend White Oak Wealth to family and friends.

I am not a client of White Oak, but a long time friend of the Nedreski family, Tiffany Grinder, and the Bert family. They have built a wonderful business built on trust and values, and I can see that in their interactions with their clients. They are all kind and personable people who take great care of those they work with. You would be remiss if you went with another financial advisor in the Erie area!
