Amelia Laytham: Rediscovering heritage through dance

Choosing to shed her language, accent, traditions and culture in order to assimilate in the United States as a teenage immigrant, it wasn’t until Amelia Laytham embraced her Indonesian heritage through dance that she felt truly at home. With two other members of the Modero Dance Company, she performs a traditional Balinese Birds of Paradise dance to prove that it’s possible to live in duality and still be whole.

Amelia Laytham is a marketing manager at UPS, where she develops and executes strategies for revenue growth in Baltimore, Philadelphia and Washington D.C. Amelia transitioned into the marketing department after being an industrial engineer with UPS for 11 years.
