You can use the Connection_StateChaned event of your DbContext if you are using EF like so.

 static void Main(string[] args)
    {               
        using (var db = new AdventureWorks2016CTP3Entities())
        {
            db.Database.Connection.StateChange += Connection_StateChange;
            db.Database.Log = (log) => System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(log);

            var purchase = db.SalesOrderHeader.Select(i => i.SalesPersonID);

            foreach (var m in purchase)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(m);
            }
        }

    }

    private static void Connection_StateChange(object sender, System.Data.StateChangeEventArgs e)
    {
        if(e.CurrentState == System.Data.ConnectionState.Open)
        {
            var cmd = (sender as System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection).CreateCommand();
            cmd.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.Text;
            cmd.CommandText = "exec sp_set_session_context 'UserId', N'290'";

            cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
        }
    }
