Background

About Mark Johnson

I have been married to Susan for 24 years. We are the parents of one beautiful teenage daughter and three young men who are currently in college, two are getting their Bachelor's degree at Seattle Pacific University, another is getting his MBA at Seattle University. We live on the northwest tip of Western Civilization, From our house we have a wonderful view of Vancouver Island and the Strait of Juan de Fuca to the north and the Olympic mountains to the south. I have been working as a Federal Law Enforcement Officer for 24 years, starting in San Diego and currently in Port Angeles, WA. I understand that many people are intimidated by the process of undergoing an inspection at the international border. I endeavor to put a human face to the process with a goal of alleviating this anxiety if possible, without being officious and by applying common sense. This is not to say that I don't take my responsibilities lightly as this can be very serious business at times. My many years of experience have enabled me to quickly ascertain the motives of a person so that I can release legitimate travelers quickly so that I can spend more time dealing with others who may have less than stellar objectives.
