Nathan, founder of ThinkTek, talks about building a tech company without sacrificing time with his kids. He plans 8-10 years ahead and keeps the business small and local so he can stay present at home, driven by a simple founding idea: love computers, help people, be there for family.

What do the goals look like when you're forecasting that kind of growth 8, 10 years out?
So our, our story, I would like to think, is unique, but I think it's pretty common in this space. So the guy who had founded ThinkTek, Nathan, he had founded it because he loved computers, he loved helping people, but he wanted to have a local small business that would allow him to always be a dad to his kids first. That was kind of where, where the ethos came from.
