David Stone
Co-Founder and CEO
David holds a Bachelor of Science in Business with an emphasis in Accounting and Finance from California State University, Northridge. He became the IRS’s youngest Revenue Officer while he was still in college, learning collections and enforcement from the inside out.
After 14 years with the government, David started his own tax and tax resolution firm, applying his insider knowledge to resolve complex cases. Frustrated by declining service from the software providers he once trusted and recommended to his tax resolution colleagues, David built IRS Solutions, a modern platform backed by dependable, personal customer support the way it used to be.
