Kimberly Powell, 48, is Nvidia’s vice president of healthcare and has worked at the chipmaker for more than 18 years. She joined as a director in 2008 after working as an engineer and in product development at an electronics startup, initially promoting Nvidia’s chips for medical imaging. Powell became a senior director in 2016 and was named vice president of healthcare in late 2017. She now oversees Nvidia’s healthcare hardware and software business, covering medical imaging, life sciences and drug discovery, and reports directly to CEO Jensen Huang. The New York Times, citing five former employees, reported that the two were seen being affectionate at a San Jose hotel during Nvidia’s March developer conference. A bystander who filmed the moment was reportedly offered a non-disclosure agreement. Powell, Huang and Nvidia declined to comment. Reports say Powell is married with two children. Nvidia’s code of conduct lists personal relationships as a possible conflict of interest.
