I believe a TN always needs to be sponsored with supporting letter from the supervisor.

I'm currently on a L1B visa (intra-company transfer for person with specialized knowledge) with green card in the works.

Visas are no longer just handed out. You typically need to demonstrate that your skill set is not available from an American citizen in the US. That is hard to do with Bachelor's degree with no significant work experience.

My advice is to marry an American.
