Joining Medicine with Clinical Herbalism and Art: Meet Jill Skrabalak

As a registered nurse and clinical quality specialist who has worked in primary care for many years, Jill Skrabalak is well-acquainted with the traditional tools of her trade. At the same time, she deeply understands that healing can come from many sources. Jill is in the process of completing a master's degree in clinical herbalism as a means of adding the power of plants to her toolbox. As the wife of Portland Art Gallery artist Cooper Dragonette, it may come as no surprise that Jill also believes in the curative nature of creative pursuits. Following her mother's death in March 2022, Jill moved her mother's baby grand piano from upstate New York to Maine, sustaining their lifelong connection through their shared love of music.
