About Alex Schremmer, CFP®

Hi, I'm Alex Schremmer. I am a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ practitioner and earned degrees in Accounting and Finance from Washburn University. Prior to making a shift to my current role as a Financial Advisor, I worked in the accounting industry for several years. My professional background has helped shape a client-focused approach to financial planning.

The process of selecting a Financial Advisor can be stressful. In my role here at GDS Wealth Management, my main goal is to add value and support clients as they plan for their retirement years. Retirement planning is different for everyone, and I work with clients to identify their individual goals and priorities and develop planning approaches tailored to their circumstances.

Retirement planning doesn't have to be overwhelming. I work closely with clients to develop a personalized financial plan aligned with their needs and objectives. As part of the ongoing planning process, I review the plan periodically and discuss potential adjustments as circumstances change.

I currently live in Carrollton, Texas with my wife, Erika, our son, Tripp, and our Mini Goldendoodle, Livvy. Together we enjoy traveling, golfing, and spending time outdoors. A highlight for Erika and me was our honeymoon trip to Italy.
