# Scratch Experience

Every software developer worth their salt can say they're proficient in Scratch, but very few can say that they've made an award winning Scratch project. In 6th grade, [my Scratch project](https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/144210368/) won 3rd place in the The Discovery's 2017 Scratch Code Challenge, hosted by the [Terry Lee Wells Discovery Museum](https://nvdm.org) in Reno, Nevada. To my memory, the competition was separated by grade level, and had ~1,000 international participants.
