After completing Trinity High School, Marcel started his own cleaning business. The business thrived up until the time of a serious motorcycle injury in 1998. After a long rehabilitation and a couple of jobs working for other people, Marcel was once again self-employed - he and his wife Alison opened a store. He owned and managed The Crystal Grove in Hillsborough New Hampshire for approximately two and a half years before it finally closed in January of 2007.

Today, Marcel is working at the Henniker Farm and Country Store and working on Celtic Illumination and blacksmithing at his Red Bellows Forge.
