Hello! My name is Stephanie Gunter!

Hello! My name is Stephanie Gunter- I am a recent graduate from University of Dayton, with a Master of Science in Biology. I worked in the Insect Ecology Lab of Dr. Chelse Prather, studying the effects of prairie restoration on an order of insects called the Hemiptera (aka True Bugs).
I love to learn about the interactions between species, and am interested in studying insects and birds. I have always loved comics, and have greatly enjoyed bringing some bug-like characters to life recently. I want to be able to share cool things about nature in a fun, accessible way.
Browse my site to learn more about my current experiences and ambitions- Illustrated CV details the formative experiences that have gotten me here, and My Comics is where I upload the most recent Cici and Leif pages, as well as general bug (and other creature) cartoons.


We hope that you enjoy your stay!!!
Insect Collection and Cicadas!


​
Over the past few years, I have been working on my insect collection, continued from some holdovers from the collection I worked on with a partner in undergrad. I bolstered my collection last fall, and then made sure to get the most out of Ohio's cicada explosion this past summer- I gained a lot of insect pinning and displaying experience. I hope I can get more experience with this skill in the future!
