A widely shared profile recounts how NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang met Lori, his wife of 41 years, at Oregon State University, where she was one of only about three women among 250 electrical engineering students. Seventeen-year-old Jensen approached the 19-year-old with 'do you want to see my homework,' weekly study sessions became dates, and he promised to be a CEO by 30 — fulfilled when he co-founded NVIDIA in 1993. He has called meeting her the single most important event of his life. Lori reportedly out-earned him in early chip design before leaving engineering to raise their children.
