Hi - I'm Chris Hardie. I live and work in Richmond, Indiana.

I've run a small business here, volunteered for a variety of local not-for-profits, campaigned for elected office, improved historic buildings and generally spent a lot of time and energy trying to make Richmond a better place.

I hope these thoughts generate discussion and action that improves the community further.

I also write at ChrisHardie.com.
