Warrior or Guardian is what I would suggest to you if you want to output high damage and survive well.
Race doesn’t really matter. They provide racial skills, but they aren’t going to make a massive difference to the profession you pick.
Either Warrior or Guardian, though Warrior would be the optimal choice.

Elementalist can be tricky to figure out. Hunter and guard from your choices could be good. Hunter pet takes agro and guard is kind of boring in a you know the outcome kind of way.
Warrioooorrrrrr…. roar.
Anything would be good seriously.
Elementalists blow up stuff faster than a nuclear bomb, but squishy as hell.
Mesmers can hide between their clones, but lacks aoe.
Necro is the king of open world, but lagging behind in endgame pve.
Ranger is the standard pet class, you wont ever know what agro is.
Thief if handled well can take on half of the map, but one mistake and you are dead.
Engi is the swiss knife of GW2.
Guardian is the good guy in full plate and refuse to die.
Warrior is the ultimate safe choice, just slam your head in the keyboard and breeze through the levels without knowing how to play.
Get a class that you enjoy playing, master it and you wont have any problem.
