History

As an LGBT non-profit founder and speaker on living authentically and embracing uniqueness, Rachel Covello knows that sharing personal and community stories bridges divides, breaks down walls, and provides a platform for empathy, understanding, and openness, furthering equality.

After purchasing a home in Gulfport, Florida, Covello fell in love with the St. Petersburg/Tampa area.  The diversity of the people, beautiful gulf coast, and up and coming corporate community sparked creativity from within. Having run a successful LGBTQ business and community journal in Pennsylvania, Covello further explored sharing the stories of the Florida’s LGBTQ community and encouraging people to come to Florida to VISIT. CELEBRATE. and LIVE.

In 2017, OUTCOAST was born!
