The Studio
Cene Studios is a brand partnership studio. We work with brands to create collaborations that extend their presence, deepen cultural relevance, and pioneer concepts the market hasn’t seen.
Partnerships often have a disconnect between imagination and execution — between the bold idea and the structure it needs to realize its full potential Contracts protect the client but limit the collaboration. Most partnerships begin with ambition but rarely endure.
We believe both perspectives must be present from the first conversation through the final structure. Cene was built for that: a brand strategist and a consumer M&A lawyer working as one integrated practice — not handing work between functions, but shaping partnerships together from the outset. When creativity and structure evolve together, partnerships gain commercial strength and the foundation to grow.
We work across the full lifecycle — from ideation and originating opportunities to structuring agreements and leading activations. Depending on what the brand’s needs are, we operate embedded within a team, alongside it, or independently managing the process end to end.
The brands we work with don’t pursue visibility without intention. They build relevance, deepen relationships, and create defining collaborations that set them apart.

The Partners
Christina is a partnership person through and through. She has an instinct for bringing together people and brands who might not otherwise meet, forming connections that feel inevitable.
Christina has spent her career working with consumer brands at moments of growth, including leading partnerships for goop Kitchen, where she concepted collaborations that expanded the brand’s cultural reach while remaining true to its point of view.
Christina has brought that same partnership instinct to her family's business, a founder-led company where the stakes are personal, the relationships complicated and walking away is not an easy option. She understands what it means to work alongside someone who is deeply invested in what they're building: the passion, the sensitivity, and how to work with both.
These experiences have shaped how Christina approaches partnerships everywhere–with grit and long-term perspective, creating relationships that last.
