Dave Ruzzo, in his tenth season with Accutax managing the Ballston Spa office, brings with him an extensive business management, customer service and technical background.  "I have been dealing with people in different technical ways since I was 16 years old," he said. 

Dave worked part-time for Thom McAn while in high school and college and advanced into its management training program.  "The training I received was equivalent to a two-year business degree," he said.  Over the years Dave managed six different stores with up to 25 employees, preparing the bookkeeping, payroll, inventory and all other accounting — by hand.  Later he designed and sold commercial and residential HVAC systems, worked for an electrical engineering firm, and operated his own computer repair business, again doing all his own accounting.

Dave loves the outdoors and enjoys traveling with his wife and two young daughters.  He loves growing grapes in his own vineyard and making wine.  The entire family volunteers to help Italian-speaking people learn more about the Bible in their own language.
