PSONE Art & Design Education

  • I co-founded PSONE in 2014, and I remained as a limited partner since 2018.

  • PSONE Portfolio School is an international education organization that cultivates young students’ artistic talents and creative ideas, helps them develop unique portfolios, and guides them in getting into elite global art schools.

  • In just six years, PSONE grew to 500+ employees, nine campuses across China, and an annual revenue of $10 million. PSONE received Series A equity funding in 2018 at a ~$27 million valuation.

“In 2013, a bright young woman named Kirk Liu was my student at @svanyc. Five short years later she co-founded and co-runs a school in China and New York, PSONE, to help students get into the colleges of their dreams. Last year she invited me to come to China to teach visual storytelling workshops and give lectures and talks to students in Shanghai, Beijing and Chengdu and we just finished the two week tour. It was the trip—and gift—of a lifetime and I am so proud, grateful and awestruck.”

“Leaving China soon after an amazing couple of weeks, giving workshops and lectures in Shanghai, Beijing and Chengdu for PSONE portfolio school-- and one intensive three-day workshop at Shanghai Institute of Visual Arts. It was a pleasure working with some of the most talented students I've ever seen.”

— Timothy Goodman
