A briefing on the New York Stock Exchange trading floor, August 2026.

The paper argues that AI now does the search, synthesis, and drafting around a decision, while the decision stays human: defining the problem, verifying the evidence, and earning trust through communication and relationships.

Built on August 2026 conversations with practitioners at Goldman Sachs, UBS, Bank of America, Norges Bank Investment Management, and seven other firms, during the University of Denver’s An Organized Walk Down Wall Street.

The Data System Behind Elevate 2035

July 2026 — Present · In development

Kyle works in the Dean’s Office at Daniels College of Business, where he is developing a role-based database application for Elevate 2035, the college’s strategic plan. It draws on five source systems: Airtable, Watermark, Banner, Slate, and Salesforce.

Approved sources

  • Airtable
  • Watermark
  • Banner
  • Slate
  • Salesforce

Supabase / Postgres

  • Agreed definitions, versioned
  • Reporting rules per measure
  • Access follows responsibility
  • Provenance and history kept
  • Readiness gaps stay visible

versioned update

Public operating pattern only — no internal schemas, permission rules, student data, or confidential records.

The diagram is sanitized: it shows the general pattern, not the college’s internal architecture.

Built on Supabase and Postgres, the application does three things:

  1. Consolidates institutional information. Approved data from the five systems sits in one database, under definitions the college has agreed.
  2. Supports analysis. Each measure records its definition, source, owner, and reporting period, so every figure can be traced to where it came from.
  3. Tracks progress on the strategic plan. Goals, measures, targets, and initiatives share one structure.

The application is in development and is being built in stages.

The flame leaves ashes on the earth. We are the fire, not the wood.

— Mr. Wisniewski

He approaches projects with an entrepreneurial mindset: identifying possibilities, testing assumptions, and refining ideas through successive iterations. Writing is central to how he connects experiences and develops his thinking. Philosophy, particularly the writings of Marcus Aurelius, informs his understanding of responsibility, sound judgment, and how to live.
