Jason Straka
Straka, a native of northeastern Ohio, developed and strengthened his commitment to environmental design while a student at Cornell University. In 1994 he earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Landscape Architecture, followed in 1995 by a Master of Professional Studies degree in Agriculture - Turfgrass Management and Environmental Golf Course Design Studies. His Master's work involved the development of Widow's Walk Golf Course in Scituate, Mass., which later would be recognized as the first environmental demonstration and research golf course in the United States.
The efficacy of Straka's environmental design philosophy is confirmed by the diversity and success of the projects with which he has been involved, not to mention their high public regard.
