Welcome! I’m Jon Heggestad.

As a scholar, teacher, writer, and artist, I’m invested in a wide range of pursuits that bring together creativity, technology, and learning. In addition to academic writing in journals like Queer Studies in Media & Popular Culture, Screen Bodies, and Transformative Works and Culture, my work has appeared on public-facing sites like Inside Higher Ed, Public Books, and Xtra Magazine. 

Beyond my scholarship, I enjoy creating art, most recently through linocut. My prints can be found in Art-o-mat machines around the U.S.

I like to swim, hike, and read. And in lieu of a dog, I own many, many Tamagotchis.
