Annette Ademasu
Shoreline City Councilmember | Position 4
I am proud to serve on the Council representing all of Shoreline's residents and businesses. Meeting and listening to people in our community is important to me. I am committed to work for your benefit on the crucial issues. What we build must take into account our changing climate. I am using my decades of experience as a scientist when tackling issues for the city.
Our family has lived in Shoreline for 25 years. I became a single parent when our twins were two years old. We lived in a small 1-bedroom duplex on a limited income for 4 years and later bought a home in Shoreline. Housing issues are close to my heart. I am advocating for programs to reduce hardships for working families, seniors, and other residents. I dedicate my passion, vision, and expertise while collaborating on the Shoreline City Council team.
I serve with this principle in mind, a quote from Frances Perkins ~
”The people are what matter to government,
and a government should aim to give all the people under its jurisdiction
the best possible life”
