Our Story

A Father, a Son, and a Mission to Save Lives

BeASuperhero began when Dr. Rajiv Narula, Founder & CEO of Sevaro Health, co-authored a children's book with his 5-year-old son Ayan to make stroke education accessible to every child.

What started as sharing printed copies in local schools has grown into a nationwide initiative with workshops, a Youth Ambassador Program, and a scholarship for future healthcare heroes.
