Our Leadership Team
Andrew Janison
Partner, CEO
Back in 1998, after recognizing a big void (and substantial NEED) for a customer service-centric transportation and parking hospitality organization, Andrew formed a company and instantly became an industry leader. His background and expertise are wide ranging—from stewarding creative solutions for transportation challenges to championing cutting-edge technology, innovation, and equipment that was traditionally lagging in the transportation sector. Andrew understands the value of long-term relationships and providing unique and custom services. He oversees TransWest marketing, finance, and operational development, while providing strategic oversight of all facets of our business.
Andrew graduated from the University of Washington with a degree in communications, and currently serves as an active board member for the National Valet Parking Association and Boeing Classic Golf Tournament.
Tracy Sundberg
Partner
Since 1999, Tracy has been a big player in transportation, parking, and event operations for some of the largest properties and events in the northwest. The talent Tracy utilizes in managing TransWest’s office and administration team is diverse, as she develops inspired proposals and executes custom event operations. Additionally, Tracy administers transportation management for Husky Stadium, Century Link Field (home of Seattle Seahawks and Sounders), as well as Safeco Field (Seattle Mariners). She also creates and supervises the transportation and staffing plans for a variety of events and venues, both large and small. Well-regarded for her knowledge and experience of efficiently moving large groups of people through a variety of creative modes of transportation, Tracy finds a cost effective solution to managing engagements efficiently— whether it’s a corporate visit of a hundred C-level execs, or ensuring 72,000 football fans arrive to a game safely and efficiently via bus, charter, car, and when it calls for it, even by boat!

Kyle Brown
Director of Operations
Kyle’s been a fast-rising star in the transportation and logistics field since 2003, when he launched his career at United Parcel Service. There, he sharpened his operations management craft, focusing on efficient operations with an eye for the bottom line. In 2010, Children’s Hospital obtained him to help restructure operations of their now award-winning shuttle program. Kyle led the charge in overhauling the back-end operation of the program, managing a team of 40, including administrators, support staff and shuttle drivers. Kyle completed his BA at Seattle Pacific University then received an MBA from Northwest University. After restructuring the Children’s Hospital shuttle program, Kyle took on a new challenge as Transportation Manager for the Seattle School District, where he was responsible for 1,300+ routes, 342 school buses, and seven different transportation partners—all while overseeing a management and support staff of 28 team members and managing over 350 operational personnel.
