# mmarkk.dev

> Personal site for Mark McKenzie, a software engineer with 40+ years in software development and enterprise integration, building practical web applications, internal tools, AI-assisted workflows, and data-heavy systems.

The site is a single scrolling document ("Atelier") composed of eight acts. Each act has a URL fragment that deep-links to it.

## Acts

- [Overture](https://mmarkk.dev/) - The thesis: four decades of shipping software and integrating enterprise systems.
- [Portrait](https://mmarkk.dev/#act-portrait) - Background, capabilities by discipline (languages, web, systems, AI), and personal context.
