Retirement Planning in a Language You Can Understand
Gregg Gonzalez
Gregg is a Certified Financial Fiduciary® and a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional. Gregg founded RetireStrong Financial Advisors to be different than most firms out there. He found that people want more from their advisors. They want personalized and caring guidance, impactful financial and tax strategies, and real forward-looking planning, instead of a cookie-cutter or “one-size-fits-all approach”. People also want an advisor who speaks on their level, in plain-English. He developed a simple mission for RetireStrong Financial Advisors: To care more about our clients than they expect us to care.
Gregg graduated from SIU-Edwardsville after falling in love with the St. Louis area. Gregg and his wife, Paige, have two incredible kids named Ava and Owen. On the weekends, you might find them at parks or soccer fields around St. Louis. Gregg also enjoys working on his farm growing apples or cutting firewood for bonfires.
Kyle is a Certified Plan Fiduciary Advisor (CPFA®) and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional. Kyle started investing in college where he co-founded an investment real estate LLC. Kyle has successfully flipped over 10 properties and had as many as 10 rental doors at one time. Ask him about the real estate investment calculator he built to analyze potential deals.
Kyle is from Lincoln, Illinois where he grew up. Kyle spends his past time with his better-half, Sammy, and their twin Husky/ Chihuahua mix dogs. He enjoys staying active outside of work and is a 6 handicap on the golf course.
Kyle admittedly added another metric to his investment real estate analysis because of the effort it required as a “passive investment”: Return on Hassle. This is where Kyle found the stock market to be a great addition to his career.
After college Kyle began studying & passing numerous exams and ultimately the rigorous CFP® Exam.

Jacque attended Bradley University, Indiana University and graduated from Ohio State University. She has been in the financial services business for 38 years.

Jacque raised a son and a daughter and has one grandson and one granddaughter. She loves spending time with family and friends, dining out and going to movies.

Client Relationship Manager
Sheryl brings 35+ years of experience in the financial services industry and still genuinely loves the work. Raised in St. Louis, she spent much of her career in San Francisco, where she held a wide range of roles across the financial services landscape, giving her a deep, practical understanding of the industry from multiple angles.
One of Sheryl’s proudest passion projects was building and leading one of the largest communities in finance focused on women and money—creating space for education, connection, and confidence around financial decision-making.
Outside of work, Sheryl is married to Darrell, as well as being a mother and grandmother. When she’s not working, you’ll likely find her spending time with her Doodles (Mable and Cash), writing articles and essays, gardening, or planning her next trip.
ASSISTANT OPERATIONS MANAGER
Paige has over a decade of experience in the financial services industry. Her background in taxation is a big asset to our team.
Paige is passionate about serving other women and mothers. She has spent time volunteering with area animal rescues and enjoys exploring St. Louis with her family.
