I am a full time business owner and prior to this my profession and degree were in IT Engineering.

My life has changed substantially in recent years due to the start of my company Diode Designs LLC and recently leaving my full time IT Job. With the help of xTool's lasers I was able to build my own laser engraving and laser education company which has led to a huge positive change in my life. Owning this laser business has allowed me many opportunities both personally and professionally I never thought I would have otherwise in terms of teaching people how to laser as well as learning/creating things myself.

The quality of the xTool lasers and the positive experience of using them, as well as strong customer support have helped me to use xTool lasers for workshops and events for people with conditions such as Down's Syndrome and Autism, to create items such as soccer trophies, special gifts, and to customize a variety of requests for individuals in charitable organizations. I also run workshops and events for people with a variety of medical conditions, allowing them to enjoy laser making in a safe environment.

My name is Megan Keddell. My small business is Devyn Rose Designs. I am a wife, a mother of two and a small business owner. It's really easy to lose yourself in being a mother, and that's why I decided to start my business. Having the ability to express my creativity with the S1 and the support I've received since starting my business has been such an amazing experience! I encourage every mom to chance their dreams and to find something that allows them to get a piece of themselves back.

I'm a high school teacher and like to encourage the students when I can. They have been stopping my my classroom and grabbing "Tokens of Strength" to help see them through. I teach design, animation and digital media in northern NJ.

I donated it to the school for free and have made about 700 tokens so far, printed on both sides. The tokens also link out to our website where there is further assistance with Social Emotional Learning.

I've been video interviewing people for over 8 years to show kids how to overcome life and difficult times. We have a podcast, website etc etc. this board is another piece of the puzzle how we help the young.

I started my xTool journey in May 2022 . I was looking for something to do for my son with autism and ADHD while doing my hobby.

I thought we could do simple projects that my son could put or glue together and have a sense of accomplishment. He loved making signs and glasses, even started practicing making inlays with epoxy. He is my safety officer and always reminds me to be safe. He checks the fire extinguishersand makes sure our ear and eye protection and respirators (epoxy and spray paint) are ready. We had a great time and he had an outlet to express himself, which was difficult most of the time, but he was focused. It was a blessing for me to be able to connect with him, which used to be a struggle.
