S'kel Beckwith was a Starfleet officer in the early 25th century. Her ancestry was partially Romulan and this made her a target of Tal Shiar agents during the Hexagon Action, when she came into contact with the Alpha Centauri Institute. During that episode, Beckwith was an engineer assigned to stripping the USS Agincourty of the Hexagon Engine in an attempt to remove all evidence of the project by Grom
Beckwith later transferred to the Fontana Foundation, along with her new superior, Admiral Syrlia Shenn-McFerran.
