For my MASC491: User Experience course, Professor Christina Dick wanted us to look over professional portfolios and find one that stands out to us. For me, Simon Pan's, a Product Designer in San Francisco, was the one that stood out the most.
For starters, I like how simple is page is in regards of having only his three headers, "Portfolio, Writing and About." Also, he has done an extensive amount of case studies over the years. He started off designing, AT Magic’—a webapp that empowers Allied Health Professionals to provide better care for their clients.
"The Independent Living Centre (ILC) NSW approached us to help them excel in the provision of Assistive Technology (AT) information. This involved redesigning the ILC NSW website and envisioning how we could use the web to transform service delivery to Rural Allied Health Professionals (AHPs). With a 10 month timeline we focused on delivering the ILC NSW's AT database to AHPs in a more effective and meaningful way."

After that he started working on another project, " In 2010, London transformed into a city for cycling with the introduction of Barclays Cycle Hire — London's self‐service, bike‐sharing scheme. This is the story of how I made a positive difference to everyday life in London. " via http://simonpan.com/work/bikes-case-study/ .
In 2014, he worked with Amazon Prime and helped them release their Unlimited Music for Prime Members. You can read more about that case study by clicking the link below.
After all this work, Simon is now working for Uber, so he must be doing a lot of things right. I wish him nothing but the best with his future with Uber.
