Payton Lesso

Payton Lesso is a Junior at Siloam Springs High School and is currently serving as the ARTSA State Treasurer. She began her TSA adventure in the 9th grade when her original advisor told her about an organization for people who liked engineering, coding, and problem-solving. She realized that she had found a place where she could be herself after competing in Technology Bowl at both the State and National levels. Payton realized that she wanted to become a State Officer after watching her classmates go through the process. She knew that she wanted to help make TSA better, and to help others grow as leaders. Payton plays trumpet in the Siloam Springs band, and you’ll often find her with her nose in a book. Payton is looking forward to becoming a better leader, competing and helping others find their passion this year.
