Keely Brazil Covello is a journalist, filmmaker, and entrepreneur. She covered national political news for The Washington Times in D.C., but it was her first hometown reporting job at The Ukiah Daily Journal that gave her a passion for telling the stories of rural, working America.
She founded Go West Enterprises with her sister Michaela Gillies in 2017. In 2023 she helped launch Ranch Vision, an economic forecasting software that plans and maximizes profit on livestock operations.
Keely currently lives with her husband Nick in Orange County, California. Her debut documentary, “You Just Can’t See Them From the Road” was released late 2023 and is currently being shown in select festivals and screenings across the country. In January 2024 she was selected as a fellow in the Palladium Pictures documentary incubator in Washington, D.C. She is currently working on a film about the unsolved murder of an elderly cattle rancher on California’s North Coast.
