MEET YOUR CREW:
CAPTAIN: Jamie Earle
CHEF: Jessa Jaresh
Jamie grew up just outside landlocked London although this didn't stop him from finding his way to the water. He started racing dinghies at eight years old and turned his hobby into a job at thirteen as a sailing instructor throughout his youth. Whilst at university studying mechanical engineering he progressed to a Commercially Endorsed Yachtmaster and spent the summers skippering throughout the Mediterranean.
After a year of office life working in the tech sector Jamie chose to swap the desk for the waves and became a full time yacht crew member. Captaining SY Solitaire a 75ft sloop on charter for a season, multiple stints on superyachts and ocean crossings and term charters on sailing catamarans in both the Med and the Virgin islands.
He has amassed in excess of 15000 miles at sea. He is also a keen skier and enjoys anything out on the water or outdoors.
Born in Colorado and raised in Texas, Jessa has always had a passion for being in nature. While she grew up in the city, her family took vacations to the beach and mountains every year and these holidays are what fueled her love for the great outdoors. After she got her degree in Psychology at Texas State University, she worked in the corporate world for a few years in Human Resources until making the radical decision to leave the hustle and bustle of a big city in order to pursue the spontaneous lifestyle of living on the ocean. In 2017 she began her career in Croatia as a Professional Yacht Chef. Since then, she has had the privilege of exploring and working in many places all over the world including Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia and many of the Caribbean islands.
The Virgin Islands quickly became one of her favorite places after sailing and working there at the end of 2018. She knew instantly that she wanted to make the Caribbean her home.
She enjoys traveling, hiking, snorkeling, scuba diving, exercising, and most importantly, curating unique and delicious meals for her loved ones and for her guests.
In addition to Jessa's many hobbies and extensive experience in the industry, she has completed multiple certifications in the last couple of years that have helped her evolve personally and professionally. She has her 100 Ton United States Coast Guard Captains License, her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training Certificate, and her Level 2 Certification in Culinary Arts.
She believes that cooking is all about sharing and being able to share unique and tasty dishes with the guests is so important to her!
One of her favorite parts about traveling is being able to experience new cultures and cuisines and incorporating these cuisines into her own menu. Seafood is a personal favorite of Jessa’s, to cook and to eat! Jessa finds it very special to be able to use the local seafood for her dishes. On board Pura Vida, Jessa will ensure that your vacation is filled with wholesome, fresh, and local meals. She has experience working with all dietary restrictions and food allergies and will work with you and your group to create the perfect menu for your week.
Jamie and Jessa is looking forward to receiving guests onboard Pura Vida and ensuring they have a fun filled charter experience.
