Paula Hurd, who was reportedly born around 1962 or 1963, is the widow of Oracle co-CEO Mark Hurd. The couple shared two daughters, Kathryn and Kelly, during their marriage.

Before his death in 2019, Mark had also served as the chairman, CEO, and president of Hewlett-Packard and spent 25 years at a software company called NCR Corporation. His net worth was an estimated $500 million.

In 1984, Paula received her bachelor’s degree in marketing from the University of Texas at Austin. She followed in her late husband’s footsteps by working in sales and alliance management at NCR for 17 years. Per her LinkedIn profile, she worked as a consultant for a decade following her stint at NCR.

However, the former tech executive prioritizes philanthropy above all else. Paula and her late husband frequently donated hefty sums to Mark’s alma mater, Baylor University.
