  "account": "Jensen Huang's first job was working as a dishwasher and waiter at a Denny’s restaurant in Portland, Oregon, when he was just 15 years old. The restaurant installed a plaque commemorating the conversations held in its booth that led to the founding of Nvidia in 2023, with Huang reinstating it after initially removing it amidst scandal surrounding his former CEO position. Huang has since praised his time at Denny’s, stating it taught him humility, hard work, and hospitality.",
