Mario and his team have really created something special and unique to give hope to Patients, Families, Caregivers and Beyond.

Mario Toruno is passionate about health, leadership, and technology. He is the founder and CEO of the first holistic digital health platform called Livyana, which stands for Live You Are Not Alone. His mission is to bring back hope to people’s health journeys or as he calls it Livyana journeys through community-based interaction. Livyana connects people living similar journeys to produce better health outcomes for caregivers, patients, and wellness driven individuals. Livyana does this by allowing its members to harness the collective genius of health and wellness experiences. He knows just how important these connections to a community matter as he battled his Livyana journey of obesity and saw his brothers Livyana journey in learning how to adapt to being a type 1 diabetic, just to name a few. “Our mission in Livyana is to bring back hope and love to healthcare journeys for patients and caregivers. Why, because once you lose hope as a patient it can be detrimental to the caregiver, and once you lose hope as the caregiver it can be detrimental to the patient.” By day he is a successful digital health executive for a DC based consulting firm. As you get to know him you will come to realize he does business with his heart. Recently many have asked him what he wanted to be known for, his answer is consistent “I want to be known for making a positive impact in this world, not the money it brings.”
