McCaw Hospitality is named after Jess’s mother Evelyn McCaw, who inspired Jess’s love of travel, food, design and storytelling from a young age. Evelyn immigrated from Belfast to Toronto in her early 20’s. She traveled extensively, and her destinations were diverse: From Mexico to Paris, from Indonesia to London. She took Jess on her first trip when she was just a few months old. She always instilled a strong sense of respect for other cultures, places and ways of life.
