Belindi Kalenda was a member of New Republic Intelligence who first joined the intelligence service in 13 ABY. Kalenda was known for her efforts in the First Corellian Insurrection, where she was the only operative to successfully exfiltrate the Corellian system and report back to the New Republic about the conflict brewing within the system. Kalenda continued to act as the lead New Republic Intelligence agent in the Corellian system through the duration of the conflict and was promoted after the incident.

During the start of the Yuuzhan Vong War, Belindi Kalenda was the Deputy Director of New Republic Intelligence. However, the success of the Elan ruse, where the Yuuzhan Vong sent an agent posing as a defector in a plot to assassinate numerous Jedi, and the surprise assault on Fondor by the Yuuzhan Vong caused her to be demoted. In the final stages of the war, the resignation of the disgraced Dif Scaur later led to her finally assuming the position of Director of Intelligence for the newly formed Galactic Federation of Free Alliances, a position she would continue to hold through the opening stages of the Confederation-Galactic Alliance War.
