Meet the Founders

Andrea Graham is an entrepreneur, creative strategist, and community builder who has lived in Squamish for more than two decades.

Andrea’s entrepreneurial journey began in 2007 with Onatah Coffee, a beloved local Squamish cafe. She went on to co-found Bass Coast Festival, now entering its 18th year and recognized globally as a leader in experiential design and community-driven culture. In parallel to her work with the festival, Andrea has built an international career performing as The Librarian, touring across Canada, the U.S., Australia, New Zealand, India and Central America.

Her vision is rooted in a simple belief: that meaningful experiences have the power to deepen our connection to ourselves, to one another, and to the places we call home.


Taylor Lysohirka is driven by a passion for bringing people together and has spent his career helping to build businesses that blend thoughtful design with exceptional experiences.

Before co-founding Sauna Sauna, Taylor worked with growing brands helping to transform ideas into experiences people genuinely connected with. Through that work, he became fascinated by the relationship between space, ritual, and community, and how the environments we create can influence how we feel and how we connect with others.

At Sauna Sauna, Taylor’s vision is to create a space where wellness feels approachable, where rituals become routine, and where connection to yourself, your community, and the natural world can become part of everyday life.
