Having seen the devastating effects of a Family losing the household breadwinner and a widowed mother having to care for her three boys by herself, Ali felt a personal calling to one day have a career in the Insurance Industry. Ali earned a Bachelor’s degree in Finance and Marketing from Georgia State University and later earned his Masters of Business Administration in 2002 from the Robinson College of Business at Georgia State University. After completing his Masters of Business Administration he decided to pursue his calling and entered the Insurance and Financial Services industry as an Agent and Financial Advisor.

In 2002, Ali entered the Insurance and Financial Services industry and decided early on that he would specialize in Medicare. Ali realized that the general public has a very high level of anxiety and confusion when approaching the age of 65 years old by what will be the most important Healthcare decision. Ali made it his professional calling to help navigate Seniors approaching 65 years old through the complexities of the Medicare planning process. Since 2002, Ali has conducted thousands of educational workshops focused on Medicare planning in Georgia and throughout the United States. Ali Moghaddam became the President of GA Medicare 101 Corp in 2015. GA Medicare 101 Corp is a Non-Profit organization who is headquartered in Atlanta Georgia but has offices throughout Georgia. Both Ali and GA Medicare 101 Corp has helped thousands and thousands of Georgians become “Medicare Gurus.” Through the educational workshop seniors are able to understand holistically what Medicare covers and what Medicare excludes in relations to Healthcare costs, then most importantly what options are available. Ali strongly believes that when Seniors attend GA Medicare 101 workshops they understand what choices are available to them, what choice will be best for their individual needs, and most importantly what is the impact of making the wrong Medicare decision when the Senior turns 65 years old.

Ali and his wife Maryam live in East Cobb and have been married for over 18 years. They have two beautiful boys Nicholas and Nathan and a love-able Mini-Golden-Doodle puppy named Tyson.
