In the Knockout Round, Martinez was paired with Sam James.
In week one of the Live Rounds, Martinez sang "Hit the Road Jack". Public vote saved Team Adam members Amanda Brown and Bryan Keith. Levine then chose Martinez over Loren Allred and Joselyn Rivera to remain in the competition.

This occurred again in week four, when "Too Close" ended the voting period at #6. Martinez was eliminated by audience vote in week five, along with the fellow Team Adam member Amanda Brown, leaving Levine with no artists.
In response, Martinez said, "I never expected to get this far and this is beyond what I"ve ever dreamed of. I"m just so glad I got to express who I am as an artist and really touch people"s hearts because that was the ultimate goal."
