Viviana Faga

Viviana Faga is a General Partner at Felicis, the early-stage venture firm behind breakout companies like Shopify, Fitbit, and Canva. A first-generation Mexican-American who grew up dismantling appliances to understand how things work, she spent 20+ years building category-defining brands at Salesforce, Yammer (acquired by Microsoft for $1.2B), Zenefits, and Platfora before making the leap into investing. At Felicis she leads investments from seed to Series B across AI infrastructure, vertical SaaS, and enterprise software - bringing an unusually hands-on operational lens to portfolio companies like Runway, Supabase, and Exowatt.
