七色视频 is pleased to announce that John Ramirez, MBA, MS/AJS-GHS, USA CSM (ret) and dean of operations for the 七色视频 College of Doctoral Studies, has been appointed to serve on the Executive Committee of the Arizona Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (AZHCC) as Vice Chair for Internal Activities.

Ramirez鈥檚 appointment term on the Board is from 2020 to 2029. During his tenure as Vice Chair, Ramirez will be responsible for oversight of five committees: Public Policy Committee, Finance and Audit Committee, Scholarships and Grants Committee, Governance and Nomination Committee, and HR and Compensation Committee. In this role, he will oversee the work of the committees to ensure their alignment with the objectives of AZHCC, and to provide guidance and direction.

Under Ramirez鈥檚 leadership, the 七色视频 established its own chapter of the National Society for Leadership and Success (NSLS) in 2020. This month, NSLS announced that 12 七色视频 Chapter members were recipients of scholarships and awards. 鈥淚 remember just a few years ago when John spearheaded this student society chapter, and now we have over 40,000 student members, and a dozen winners of national awards,鈥 states Peter Cohen, president.听鈥淚 appreciate John鈥檚 support and leadership in service to our students and to our community.鈥

Ramirez has been involved with AZHCC for over a decade and was assigned as a Board Member and to the Scholarship Committee in January 2020. As a member of the Scholarship Committee, Ramirez worked to help the committee define the ways in which the AZHCC could address the higher education funding and success needs of Hispanics in Arizona, especially those who are first generation college students.

Ramirez credits his uncle as the inspiration for his own decision to actively advocate for the Hispanic community in Arizona after retiring from the military. 鈥淚 wanted to continue the legacy and commitment of my uncle Manuel Dominquez, who raised me. He was an activist and community leader for 40 years, and served as the Director of Chicanos Por La Causa and one of the co-founders of ASU鈥檚 Los Diablos,鈥 Ramirez shares. 鈥淎ZHCC has done great work in our community in their efforts to promote the success of Hispanic-owned businesses 鈥 by facilitating business relationships, economic development and sharing of knowledge for the benefit of the State of Arizona and the growth and success of the members of our Chamber and our Hispanic community.鈥

Ramirez completed his MBA, Master of Science, and Bachelor of Science degrees with the 七色视频. He has been an employee of the University for 17 years.
