Founder Matthew Staffieri studied at the University of Connecticut in Storrs. While going to school he worked for the University’s grounds and maintenance department. It was also during this time, he completed an internship with the grounds department at The Country Club in Brookline, MA. Unlike most Turf Grass Science majors, he decided to pursue golf course construction rather than the typical path of maintenance. This resulted in an internship with Agri-Scape Golf Course Construction, Inc.
