authority as hereinafter described on behalf of and in the name, place and
stead of the undersigned to:

(1)	prepare, execute, acknowledge, deliver and file Forms 3, 4, and 5
(including any amendments thereto) with respect to the securities of
Vericel Corporation, a Michigan corporation (the "Company"), with the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission, any national securities

regulations promulgated thereunder, as amended from time to time (the
"Exchange Act");

(2) 	prepare, execute, acknowledge, deliver and file Forms 144 in
accordance with Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities

(3)	seek or obtain, as the undersigned's representative and on the
undersigned's behalf, information on transactions in the Company's

Additionally, the undersigned acknowledges that:

(1)	this Power of Attorney authorizes, but does not require, such
attorney-in-fact to act in his or her discretion on information provided to
such attorney-in-fact without independent verification of such information;

(2)	any documents prepared and/or executed by such attorney-in-fact on
behalf of the undersigned pursuant to this Power of Attorney will be in

(3)	neither the Company nor such attorney-in-fact assumes (i) any liability
for the undersigned's responsibility to comply with the requirements of the
Exchange Act or the Securities Act, (ii) any liability of the undersigned
for any failure to comply with such requirements, or (iii) any obligation
or liability of the undersigned for profit disgorgement under Section 16(b)

(4)	this Power of Attorney does not relieve the undersigned from
responsibility for compliance with the undersigned's obligations under the

	The undersigned hereby gives and grants the foregoing attorneys-in-fact
full power and authority to do and perform all and every act and thing
whatsoever requisite, necessary or appropriate to be done in and about the

or such attorney-in-fact's substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or
cause to be done by virtue of this Power of Attorney and the rights and
powers herein granted.
