Staff Spotlight
Victoria Bahena
Senior Consultant
San Francisco, CA
As I was born and raised in Mexico City, travel and food are my passions! Outside of my role at SciVida, I am an avid adventurer and have had the opportunity to visit close to 30 countries. I am drawn to learning about the culture of each place I go, and I enjoy immersing myself in local customs, which of course involves trying out every new kind of food I encounter. From street food to fine dining, I am passionate about discovering flavors. In my free time, I enjoy exploring new restaurants and bars in my new hometown in California, as well as hiking and adventuring in the outdoors. Above all, I love spending time with family and friends.
WHY I CHOSE SCIVIDA
My journey to SciVida was serendipitous. After completing my master’s degree, I embarked on a role at a larger life sciences consulting firm in New York City where I honed my consulting skills but felt limited in my growth opportunities. As destiny would have it, on a particularly disheartening day, I stumbled on SciVida and was invigorated by the exciting opportunities it offered. After just a couple of initial conversations, I could tell the partners had a fantastic vision of creating a strong, world-class organization. It didn’t take me long to decide to join the growing and amazing team at SciVida.
To me, what sets SciVida apart is the intimate, close-knit environment that fosters positivity and collaboration. As SciVida is a growing organization, I have a voice in shaping its trajectory and contributing to its expansion, a level of involvement and impact I deeply value. In my personal and professional pursuits, I thrive on exploration, learning, and meaningful connections—at SciVida, I’ve found the intersection of these passions.
FUN FACTS
- Never before fond of felines, I did a complete turnaround and allowed a cat named Nilo to steal my heart!
- I am fluent in Spanish, German, English, and Italian (in order of learning).
- I love to sing and dance.

When it’s time to close my laptop for the day, you’ll typically find me cooking a new meal, binge watching the next hit series on Netflix, or running at the park with my dog, Alfie. In addition to making the most of the four seasons in the New England area, I also love to travel outside of the US. My most recent adventure was a trip to Spain where I was fortunate enough to indulge in several new dining experiences, including authentic traditional paella (with rabbit and all). I’ve visited 15 countries so far and am looking forward to seeing where life takes me next! (Hopefully, I can catch up to Victoria soon.)
WHY I CHOSE SCIVIDA
I originally had my eyes set on medical school after graduating college, but I hit pause on that commitment and instead chose to explore the business of science. My career started at a small life sciences consulting firm, and I learned several valuable lessons as a young professional there. However, I wanted to gain exposure to a greater diversity of projects, and, ultimately, I sought a place to work where I felt a deeper connection to the underlying science and patients.
I knew shortly after meeting SciVida’s leadership team that there was a unique opportunity at hand. I liked that I would have a chance to make a difference at the firm and shape my own professional trajectory, all the while keeping patients at the forefront of our work. SciVida’s purpose, to help bring science to life so that patients get access to life-saving therapies and our world is a healthier place, brings me back to my scientific and clinical passions that first emerged during my time as an undergraduate. As I look toward the future, I’m excited to continue being a part of SciVida’s growth story and working on impactful projects with close-knit colleagues.
