Udacity also offers innovative technologies such as self-driving cars, virtual reality and deep learning, collaborating with companies like Google, Facebook, Amazon, IBM, and Mercedes-Benz.
I have been motivating students and providing guidance to aspiring learners in the field of Virtual Reality among others. Gaining valuable leadership experience while perfecting my written communication and teaching abilities. Creating meaningful relationships with people from around the world. Making students feel connected to another person who is invested in their progress, learning experience and, ultimately, their success.
Providing meaningful feedback on brand new nanodegrees such as Data Analyst, Data Scientist, Artificial Intelligence for Trading, Cloud DevOps and Data Storytelling.
Reviewing student project submissions while giving valuable feedback in order for them to meet specifications. Being an active member in the discussion forums and making student learning experience fun, enjoyable, and engaging.
A few feedback highlights I have received so far:
"Hey George, we're pretty impressed by your great blog post. Do you have any interest in becoming a mentor for the program?"
- Durant Schoon, January 2018
"George, Wow, this is truly a lot of valuable feedback you are giving us here, not just for the Engineering project, but also the Data Science Process lesson. I'm blown away by all your thoughtful comments here. Thank you so much! I will definitely share this with the instructor to make good use of."
- Rick Gaston, Beta Testing Manager, March 2018
"Thank you so much for thoughtfully going through the content as a beta tester. It is hard to find people who provide actionable feedback."

Estimation of Average Vehicle Speeds Traveling on Heterogeneous Lanes Using Bluetooth Sensors
Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC Fall), 2012 IEEE
Abstract:
We investigate the problem of estimating the average speeds of vehicles traveling in different types of lanes, e.g., express lanes and local lanes, without knowing which lanes individual vehicles were traveling in. In our study, we use the recordings at two spatially separated Bluetooth sensors, which contain the globally unique Bluetooth device addresses of Bluetooth-enabled devices inside vehicles. These recordings are used to compute the vehicle speeds. Unfortunately, these…Abstract:
We investigate the problem of estimating the average speeds of vehicles traveling in different types of lanes, e.g., express lanes and local lanes, without knowing which lanes individual vehicles were traveling in. In our study, we use the recordings at two spatially separated Bluetooth sensors, which contain the globally unique Bluetooth device addresses of Bluetooth-enabled devices inside vehicles. These recordings are used to compute the vehicle speeds. Unfortunately, these recordings do not tell us which lanes the vehicles were traveling in and hence do not allow us to directly estimate the separate average speeds of vehicles, for example, in express lanes and local lanes or in high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes and regular lanes. We propose a novel estimation scheme that can provide separate average speeds of the vehicles in different types of lanes. We demonstrate the feasibility and accuracy of our proposed scheme, using real data collected by Bluetooth sensors alongside highways.
