After purchasing a home in Gulfport, Florida, Covello fell in love with the Tampa Bay area. The diversity of the people, the beautiful gulf coast, and the up-and-coming business community sparked creativity from within. Hear how Covello works with Visit Tampa Bay and other Florida destinations to share stories of the state’s LGBTQ community and encourage people to visit and see for themselves.
