The Lori Huang Story: How a 17-Year-Old Lab Partner Promised Her Straight A's — Then a CEO Title
RachelVT42 · x · 2026-11-11
A widely shared thread profiles Lori Huang, Jensen Huang's wife: one of only three women in a 250-student EE class at Oregon State, paired with the 17-year-old skip-ahead student who promised straight A's for Sunday study sessions and a CEO title by 30. They married in 1985. A former HP microchip designer, she raised two kids who now both work at Nvidia, and since 2007 has presided over the couple's foundation, giving away hundreds of millions including $50M to Oregon State for an AI and robotics center.
