Lani Verner Deauville is Vice-President of Orange Peel Enterprises, Inc. She has had several high profile careers and adventures since she became a quadriplegic in a diving accident 43 years ago. She is a former model, diving champion, psychology teacher and mental health counselor and was the first woman and disabled person to be Executive Director of the Florida State Vocational Rehabilitation Program.

Due to her severe spinal injury, Lani suffered many years with poor health and a weakened immune system. Her enduring struggle was the inspiration for the award-winning GREENS+®, developed by her brother-in-law as a source of superior nutrition and immune support. She now enjoys a life full of energy and good health with her husband, Jude, their teenage son, Ryan, three tropical birds, four Maine Coon cats and two Great Danes - Spike and Sheeba
