Professor Ramos joined the Lubin School of Business in 2012 and serves as the faculty advisor for The Industry Network student-run organization.

Prior entering the world of higher academia, Ramos has 20 years of experience in the performing arts as a dancer, choreographer, arts educator and artistic director of Ramos Dance, a dance company based in New Jersey. In 2000, Ramos has received the artist-in-residence award through New Jersey State Council for the Arts in which he created and developed arts-in-education dance curriculum for elementary, middle school and high school venues. As a dance artist, he has danced with dance companies including the Hawaii Ballet Theater, Ballet Hawaii, Hartford Ballet, Soundance Repertory Company, and dances created by Kevin Wynn, Sean Curran, Lonnie Moretton, and Heidi Latsky. As a choreographer, his dances were showcased throughout the tri-state area from 1989 through 2002. He is currently serving as a Board Ambassador for New York City’s Battery Dance Company since 2012 and as an active member of New York City Arts-Education Roundtable.

It also enables him to write those viewpoints in his research studies. His research has focused on the impact of recession and funding for arts education in New York City schools and the cross platform consistency of online DVDs rating in relationship with Netflix and Amazon rater reviewers, empirical validity of prior experience for performance affected by rating approaches, just to name a few. In 2018, his collaborative paper on “The Relationship of Amazon Ratings of DVDs with Netflix Ratings of Movie Quality Across Global Markets,” written together with Professor Dan Baugher (first author), was presented at the 25th annual American Society of Business and Behavioral Science conference held in Las Vegas, NV has received the “Best Paper of a Track.”
