Two pillars under one roof.

Christine Senne is the Co-Founder of Galleon Consulting Group, leading the firm's compliance and regulatory affairs consulting team. She is a Florida-based attorney with 20 years of experience. She has spent more than half of her career on compliance and regulatory affairs, with particular strengths in cannabis and environmental matters.

From November 2018 to September 2025, Christine served as Director of Compliance at FLUENT Cannabis, serving as a member of the executive leadership team for a multistate operator with operations in Florida, Texas, New York, and Pennsylvania. During her tenure, the company grew from $8.1 million in 2018 to $103.6 million in 2024 in annual revenues. She obtained hundreds of regulatory approvals from states licensing agencies, including approximately 500 variance approvals from the Florida Department of Health, Office of Medical Marijuana Use. She also led the successful defense of the company against federal and state regulatory enforcement actions, and managed a 7-person compliance and regulatory team across the multistate footprint.

In that role, Christine developed and oversaw her company's compliance program, structured around the U.S. Department of Justice and Department of Health and Human Services guidelines. She managed quality assurance and safety in accordance with state laws, FTC, FDA, Health Canada, OSHA, GACP, GMP, HIPAA, ISO, and HACCP standards.

Christine has participated in the full gamut of cannabis compliance and regulatory matters—applications, acquisitions, renewals, external audits, program development, litigation, inspections, approvals, notices of violation, investigations, and corrective actions—in eight states. She understands the life cycle of a cannabis license and how to work with intense, constantly evolving regulatory challenges for large and small companies.

Christine currently serves as Of Counsel to the Florida law firm of Grossman Roopnarine and Bayó working in both the Tampa area and Tallahassee. Through her firm, she provides regulatory counsel to medical marijuana companies, and as General Counsel to the Florida Medical Marijuana Trade Association, representing the association before the Department of Health and the Division of Administrative Hearings on matters relating to medical marijuana treatment center licensees.

Christine is a featured speaker for Green Flower, teaching cannabis manufacturing compliance for courses delivered at more than 60 colleges and universities. She is an alumna of the Florida Bar Leadership Academy (Class VI), past Chair of the Florida Bar's Committee on Technology and the Committee on Advertising, and a former President of the Highlands County Bar Association.
