The Story

LEGACY BioStudios, LLC was built on resilience, innovation, and understanding. Assata Caldwell Worrell, the founder grew up in a university town where she was surrounded by research and innovation dedicated to helping the public by searching for the core of a problem to find a solution. After graduating from college with a degree in Biological Pre-Medical Illustration, our founder decided to do some digging of her own and launch a small start-up called Illustrations By Assata. She went back home and decided to use her art to help the progress of innovation with visual communication. Later, Illustrations By Assata became LEGACY BioStudios, LLC. While the name has changed, the spirit of innovation in Illustrations By Assata still lives within LEGACY BioStudios, LLC today.

Mya

In Loving Memory

Mya was LEGACY's beloved office pup, who came into Assata's life in 2012, just as she began her Biological Pre-Medical Illustration degree at Iowa State University. A perfect study buddy, she supported Assata throughout her academic journey and was by her side as she founded the company. Mya’s unwavering loyalty and joyful presence boosted office morale, especially with her daily walks—no ifs, ands, or wiggly butts. She passed in 2023, leaving behind a legacy of companionship and inspiration. Though she's no longer with us, her spirit will always remain a part of LEGACY’s work.
