Meet Shauna: CCO
Shauna Arrington
Chief Creative Officer & Founding Member
1. Tell us a little about your background and what brought you to Eternal Legacy AI.
I’ve always been a creative, making art, diving into photography, and falling in love with graphic design. I’m also deeply intuitive, someone who sees layered perspectives and loves guiding others toward beauty and truth, both visually and emotionally.
Alongside my best friend Christie, I co-founded a strategic brand design business where we help people and businesses discover the best in themselves and express it with clarity, creativity, and care. That’s actually what led us here.
When Jon first shared the concept for Eternal Legacy AI with me, I was immediately intrigued. I believed in him and the vision from the very beginning. I’ve always learned best through conversation, and this project offered something that formal education often misses: the soul of story.
Not long after that first conversation, Jon and I discussed that he needed a strong, unified brand, and brought us in to build it. What started as contract work quickly grew into something deeper. Christie and I now lead the visual, creative, and brand experience side of the company. I knew early on how monumental this could be, and I’m so grateful to be part of it.
2. What do you love most about the work you do here?
I love the creativity and how deeply what I do is valued. I get to see the brand, the product, and the entire experience come to life with a truly brilliant team. But honestly? What I love most is that all of our voices matter. We’re not just a team, we’re collaborators. And that’s a rare kind of magic.
3. If you could ask Abraham Lincoln one question, what would it be?
What was the one significant experience you had that led to your drive to abolish slavery?
4. Who is one person from history you’d love to have a conversation with—and why?
I’m going to pick two: Benjamin Franklin and Lucille Ball.
Franklin, because of his drive, creativity, wit, and wisdom. He shaped a nation with ideas that still ripple today, and he’s one of my ancestors.
And Lucy, because she used humor, heart, and creative risk to expand how people see the world. She was beautiful, but never afraid to let her humor outshine that, never afraid to pull a face or break a rule to make someone laugh. She was bold. She helped introduce the first biracial couple (and baby!) on American television, and the world fell in with them. She shaped not just a genre but multiple generations.
They both branded hearts and nations, and left behind legacies that were anything but ordinary.
5. What does the word legacy mean to you?
Legacy is how one’s life, their story, is remembered by those who come after them. Some people leave behind inventions, truths, art, or music—something that reflects the excellence in who they were.
For me, I hope my legacy includes love, the importance of communication, and color.
6. What’s a surprising skill, interest, or fun fact about you that others might not guess?
I have perfect color vision, and part of the reason is that I have synesthesia. I can taste many colors when I see them. Sometimes that’s delightful, and sometimes it’s… not. I didn’t realize this wasn’t normal until I was in my thirties!
