Council Position 7

Burien needs a champion for all its residents. I’m committed to representing you, no matter your background or affiliation. With nearly two decades of community activism and almost a decade of nonprofit experience, I know what it takes to find solutions, engage stakeholders, and get results.
I’m committed to fostering an environment of community involvement to address crime, homelessness, and neighborhood revitalization throughout the city. To tackle crime, I’ll implement a neighborhood-watch program with accessible resources to improve safety and free-up police time. I’ll engage the community in task forces and dialogues to develop a collaborative “Housing First” solution to our homelessness crisis. As your Councilmember, I’ll refocus smart growth throughout Burien—not just downtown – while protecting our unique character.
I’m honored to be endorsed by the King County Democrats, 34th District Democrats, Sheriff John Urquhart, King County Labor Council, and many more. I’d be honored to earn your vote.

It’s time to bring law and order back to our city. My considerable experience and volunteerism with the Burien Police Department has prepared me to take on this challenge. I’m ready to make an even greater positive impact for our community. My primary focus will be putting Burien first with every decision, crime prevention, pedestrian safety, and roads.
I’m ready to step into the role of Council Member with a Burien first attitude. We need strong leadership that will be tough on crime.
I’m not a career seeking politician, rather a community leader with Burien’s best interests in mind.
Vote Janssen, Vote Burien First.
