A native of Atlanta, Georgia, Rodney attended the University of Georgia and in 1974 graduated with a Bachelor of Landscape Architecture. After graduation he began working for Kirby, Griffiths & Associates. In 1987, he moved to Hawaii and teamed up with Robin Nelson to form Nelson and Wright Golf Course Architects, a division of the Honolulu-based land planning firm Belt, Collins and Associates.

In 1996 he opened his own independent firm, Wright Golf Design. Rodney is a strong believer in integrating the culture and environment of the surrounding area into a golf course. His goal is to design a course that people walk away from, but remember every hole. They may not like every hole, but they remember them all.
