Southeast Region: Choctaw Tribe, Southwestern Christian University

My name is Payton Leba. As a proud member of the Choctaw tribe, I am extremely blessed and honored to receive NAFWS Southeast Regional Scholarship to help me reach my goals and honor my heritage. It has provided me with financial relief and the ability to dream bigger. I am a student athlete at Southwestern Christian University where I am playing softball and am majoring in Kinesiology. I am extremely passionate about being able to work in the medical field. I plan to go into Chiropractic care after graduating from my university. This financial opportunity has allowed me to focus on my classes and less on financial needs. I am committed to making the best out of this generous scholarship in order to contribute positively to the field of Kinesiology.
