J.A. Seed, Viverae’s Ambassador of Health, Spreads the Word About Wellness in Dallas/Fort Worth

Everyone knows that an apple a day can keep the doctor
away, but over 80 companies across the Dallas-Fort Worth area are finding out from an
unexpected and uniquely dressed individual even more about how workplace wellness can take
a serious bite out of their health care costs.

Viverae, a Dallas-based company that is a leading national provider of comprehensive health
management and workplace wellness solutions, is sending its health ambassador, a big red apple
known as J.A. Seed, to companies around the Metroplex. J.A. Seed and the rest of the Viverae
team understand that a wellness program improves the health of employees, productivity and
the morale of a company, while decreasing absenteeism and mitigating health care costs — all
of which contribute to a business’s bottom line.

J.A. Seed is played by Denver-based actor Paul Borillo, who wears a custom-designed red apple
costume and brings to life the character with a humorous and engaging persona. J.A. Seed
leaves his calling card at every stop, an Amazing Answer Apple, which is like a Magic 8-Ball but
in apple form and with health tips.

“We could have created a brochure or even a video, but we wanted to bring the concept of
wellness alive,” said Robin Claterbaugh, Viverae’s vice president of marketing. “Because this is
such an unexpected and fun approach, we believe that J.A. Seed will leave a lasting impression
on the companies he visits. When these companies think of wellness, they will think of
Viverae.”

J.A. Seed will be making more appearances throughout the Metroplex on Wednesday, Aug. 11;
Thursday, Aug. 12; and Friday, Aug. 13.
