Prepared payroll taxes in compliance with local, state, and federal tax laws and regulations

Played a key role in reducing operating costs by 28% through proactive attention to efficient payroll processes and a decrease in manual check production

Selected to train and mentor new payroll clerks in basic payroll operations
