Chris Wooddell Financial Advisor
Chris is a seasoned financial advisor who takes pride in helping individuals and families gain clarity, confidence, and control over their financial future.
Throughout his career, he has guided clients through the often-complex topics of financial strategy, debt reduction, and retirement planning; always in plain, easy-to-understand terms. His approach is patient, educational, and focused on empowering clients to make informed decisions that align with their goals and values.
Chris began his career working alongside his father in a family-owned firm, where he developed a deep appreciation for personal relationships and trust; the foundation of every financial plan. Over the years, he has built expertise in financial planning, asset protection, and retirement strategy.
In 2023, he transitioned into the federal sector, where he now helps federal employees across the U.S. understand their benefits, maximize their TSP, and prepare for a secure and confident retirement. Clients often appreciate his ability to simplify complex concepts and his genuine commitment to their long-term success.
A dedicated professional with a servant’s heart and a detail-oriented approach, Chris has earned multiple industry designations and serves as a Founder and Senior Advisor at Federal Retirement Advisors.
Outside of work, Chris enjoys tending the family’s vegetable garden, lifting weights, and spending time outdoors. He and his wife, Stephanie, have been happily married for 27 years and have two grown children, Mackenzie (24) and Ty (21).
After two decades in The Woodlands, Texas, Chris now serves the Killeen, Temple, and surrounding Central Texas communities. He and his family are active in their church, love to travel, and believe that life’s best moments come from simple joys and meaningful connections.
