Hello, I’m Marie Bellevue!
A research professional, writer, and nonprofit consultant with a passion for building systems that drive meaningful change in policy and organizational outcomes. My particular interest lies in the intersection of data analysis, regulatory navigation, and stakeholder engagement—recognizing that effective change requires not only rigorous research and evidence-based approaches, but also the operational infrastructure to translate complex insights into compelling narratives and actionable policy solutions.
