Who is Colette Kress? Nvidia's finance chief steps in as interim CEO after Huang exit
Colette Kress joined Nvidia in 2013 after nearly 25 years in finance roles at Cisco, Microsoft and other tech companies.
Nvidia's CEO, Jensen Huang, faces potential removal from his position following allegations of a second extramarital affair, according to the Wall Street Journal. The New York Times reported that Huang allegedly had an affair with Kimberly Powell, Nvidia's vice president of healthcare, who oversees the company's medical applications.
This second affair adds to concerns surrounding Huang's alleged infidelity with a suspected Chinese spy, as previously reported by the Wall Street Journal. Nvidia shareholders filed a lawsuit in California over claims that they were misled about Huang's alleged affair with the suspected spy. As a result, Nvidia's board is reportedly considering whether to oust the CEO.
Shares of Nvidia have dropped following the recent reports of the alleged affairs. Notably, Elon Musk and Tim Sweeney, CEO of Epic Games, have expressed support for Huang's potential ouster.
