Karem Martinez
@karemmartinez
I process payroll, reconcile financial data, and support accounting operations.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently processing semimonthly payroll at Las Vegas Athletic Club, recording timecards, leave balances, trainer pay rates, payroll batches, checks, reports, and cash records. Previously, I supported daily reservation closing, customer billing, payroll, cash counting, credit-card receivables, and quotes at Executive Las Vegas Limo Transp.
I've also worked in anti-money laundering analysis, human resources administration, billing, research, procurement, and customer service. With a Master's in Finance and experience across payroll, bookkeeping, reporting, petty cash, and data analysis, I bring organized administrative and financial support in English and Spanish.
