Reasonable, Balanced Leadership

  • Real Solutions for Hoosiers

    Hoosiers are ready for a change and are tired of the extreme voices that distract us from addressing the issues that matter most to our families and communities. Our government has wasted too much time on divisive agendas instead of seeking common ground and practical solutions.

    Dr. Hartig is committed to promoting education, ensuring access to affordable housing and healthcare, supporting sensible economic growth, and advancing public health and safety. As your representative for Noblesville in District 29, he will focus on cooperative, effective solutions that benefit our community. Let's move beyond the national talking points and work together to make a real difference for Hoosiers.

  • Education Begins with a Conversation

    Education Begins with a Conversation

    We've all seen the anger and frustration surrounding public education in public meetings, the press, and in online spaces. This erodes respect and support for institutions that are the bedrock of success in Noblesville. Hoosier values teach us to listen to diverse voices and engage in honest and respectful conversations to resolve differences and find commonality.

    Any workable solution must be based on mutual trust. Noblesville can lead by rebuilding trust among educators, parents, and the community. If these solutions involve work within the state legislature, Dr. Hartig’s experience as an educator and change leader will be instrumental in the process. The ultimate goal: creating an educational system that truly serves our community.

    Proven Experience

    After 15-years of change leadership experience in the mortgage and finance industry, Dr. Hartig has supported working Hoosiers to earn certifications and degrees to advance their careers as a Management and Leadership Professor at WGU Indiana over the past decade.

    Dr. Hartig’s unique blend of industry and educational expertise makes him exceptionally qualified to understand the challenges and opportunities facing our community. His passion for education, healthcare, and social justice drives his work, and his integrity ensures that he will always prioritize the needs of Hoosiers over partisan politics. With Dr. Hartig, you can trust that your voice will be heard, and your concerns will be addressed with the utmost respect and urgency.

Core Values and Moral Compass

Raised by a dedicated Noblesville Vietnam Vet Marine and resident, Dr. Hartig learned that hard work is essential for achieving results. His mother instilled in him a strong moral compass, teaching him to do the right thing, especially when it's difficult and when nobody is watching. Dr. Hartig is committed to fighting for District 29 and upholding our values, always putting in the effort to achieve the best for our community with a reasonable approach.

The Catalyst

Hoosiers are rightfully concerned that an unchecked majority in the legislature, like we have in Indiana, can lead to extreme and unreasonable laws that restrict personal freedoms instead of addressing the issues that matter most. Dr. Hartig’s decision to run for office comes from a deeply personal place. After he lost his child, Cam (Callie) to suicide on April 12, 2022, his journey led him on a path with a clear goal of instilling further resources and protections for LGBTQ+ youth and young people.

Our Indiana schools face a daunting student-to-school counselor ratio of 694:1; well above the national average. Our schools and public health organizations need to be better equipped to support individuals and families struggling with mental health issues. Dr. Hartig is dedicated to creating a respectful, inclusive, and safe learning environment for all children. This is a core part of his platform and his commitment to supporting all vulnerable youth throughout Indiana.
