Tricia Coyne got her first taste of life in the Keys working as a divemaster and scuba instructor in 2005, while on summer break from studying marine biology at UCLA. She moved to Key West full-time in 2012, and became an active member of the Key West business community as the owner of several small businesses including Firefly Restaurant, Tiger Bar & the Champagne Room.

After leaving the restaurant industry in 2023, Tricia shifted her focus to local non-profit organizations, working as the parish administrator for St. Paul’s Episcopal Church until 2026. She is currently the chorus administrator for Keys Choral Arts and serves as the President of the Board of Directors of Reef Relief, Inc.

As the Administrative & Development Coordinator for Last Stand, Tricia combines her skill in administrative work with her passion for protecting the environment and her love of the unique character of the Florida Keys.
