Ashley Chandler Has Spent 25 Years Making Complicated Technology Feel Human
Before Peregrine, she helped explain cloud software, payments infrastructure, 3D search, and autonomous delivery. The products changed. Her real assignment did not: make the difficult legible.
Saucony
Saucony is one of America's oldest athletic footwear brands, founded in 1898 in Kutztown, Pennsylvania, and named after the nearby Saucony Creek. A subsidiary of Wolverine World Wide, the company designs performance running shoes and apparel for runners of every level, from race-day carbon-plated racers to everyday trainers and rugged trail shoes. Known for cushioning technologies like PWRRUN, PWRRUN PB and EVERUN and for the popular Endorphin, Triumph, Kinvara and Peregrine franchises, Saucony pairs a 125-plus-year manufacturing heritage with modern biomechanical design, while heritage models like the Jazz and Shadow have crossed over into streetwear and lifestyle fashion.
3NT Medical
3NT Medical is an Israeli medical device company building a family of sterile, single-use endoscopes purpose-built for ear, nose, and throat (ENT) surgeons. Its two FDA-cleared, CE-marked products - the Colibri Micro ENT Scope for otology and the Peregrine Drivable ENT Scope for the sinuses - are designed to reach narrow anatomy that rigid reusable scopes struggle to see, while removing the cross-contamination and reprocessing burden of multi-use devices. Founded in 2012 by brothers Ehud and Eran Bendory and backed by Japanese optics maker Hoya, the company operates from Rosh Ha'ayin, Israel, with U.S. operations in Short Hills, New Jersey.
Jerod Nelsen
Jerod Nelsen is a forward-deployed engineer and deployment strategist working out of the Office of the CEO at Peregrine, the San Francisco data platform that Sequoia valued at $2.5 billion for untangling the disparate systems public safety agencies rely on. A 6'7" former Princeton volleyball captain who studied Operations Research and Financial Engineering, he graduated summa cum laude in 2022, added a master's from Penn in 2024, and passed through EY-Parthenon and Audax before landing at one of the fastest-scaling govtech companies in the country. He sits where the code meets the customer: turning tangled agency data into something an analyst can actually search.
Ben Rudolph
Ben Rudolph is the co-founder of Peregrine Technologies, a San Francisco-based public safety data platform that raised $190M at a $2.5B valuation in 2025. A Stanford Computer Science graduate and former NCAA gymnastics All-American, Rudolph pivoted from Silicon Valley offers to spend two years building humanitarian tech for UNHCR's refugee camps before co-founding Peregrine with his college gymnastics teammate Nick Noone. Today, Peregrine's platform serves law enforcement agencies covering more than 80 million Americans, unifying fragmented data from body cameras, dispatch records, and crime databases into a single real-time intelligence system.
