Barbara Scurry, Founder, Senior Partners
Barbara Scurry grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota, but has lived in the Atlanta area since late 2000. She earned a Bachelor’s of Business Administration with honors from Middle Tennessee State University and pursued a career in marketing within the manufacturing, financial services, and geriatric healthcare industries. While doing sales and business development in nursing homes and marketing for a continuing care retirement community and a private-duty home care company, she developed a passion for working with senior citizens.
In 2011, Barbara founded Senior Partners, formerly known as The Money Moxie, with the aim of serving as a financial advocate for seniors who are grappling with their daily life and financial concerns. With her skill at organizing chaos, Barbara and her staff get things done for their clients, protect them from fraud, help keep them independent, and save them money. Senior Partners specializes in providing above and beyond personalized, concierge-type services for their clients.
