At Diode Designs LLC, our mission is to provide high-quality, customizable products that meet the unique needs and desires of each of our customers. We strive to deliver exceptional customer service, taking pride in our attention to detail and commitment to excellence.

I'm Mike Smerka — the laser-savvy creative behind Diode Designs, where stainless steel meets style and education meets execution. Former IT engineer turned engraving entrepreneur, I’ve carved out a niche that blends high-quality custom products (think photo-engraved tumblers and sleek glass ornaments) with hands-on laser education for makers who want more than just plug-and-play.

I'm not just running a business — I'm building a brand that supports, teaches, and inspires. Whether it’s crafting SEO-optimized posts, tightening up vendor collabs, or launching subscription memberships, testing new equipment... we're always focused on leveling up.
