Meet the Founders

Vinay Kalva

Vinay Kalva is a co-founder of Live Well Teens and President of the Skyline High School Live Well Teens Club that started in 2020. He has a passion for evidence-based health information. Being an avid reader, Vinay found that teenagers are often uninformed about the very issues they are most affected by. Thus, Vinay partnered with Anagha Rao to create Live Well Teens, a nonprofit organization. When Vinay isn’t working on Live Well Teens, he loves to read, play board games, and bike.

Anagha Rao

Anagha Rao is a co-founder of Live Well Teens and lives in Utah. She hopes to work in the healthcare industry someday.

When she isn’t working on Live Well Teens, Anagha likes to play tennis, read mystery books, and volunteer in her community.
