KG Varunkanth - Resume on the Web
Doctor, Developer, Photographer, Techie, Pentester
Tamilnadu, India
Hey there!
I'm Dr.Varunkanth.K.G, and as you might have already read, I'm a Doctor, Developer, Photographer and a Pentester. This website was made to showcase all of what I can do and plan to do. Don't judge my writing based on this section though, this is by far my shoddiest work yet.
I got into design because I consider myself a pseudo-perfectionist, if that's even a word? As in, I hate to see things 'not look good'. So I set out on a journey to make products that people use that 'look great', and I'm forever on that path.
I got into medical profession only to help people lead a better life in terms of health. I am good at reading ECGs and stuffs.
I got into photography for a very philosophical reason and a very weird one at that. To me, photography is no less than time-travel. When I look at a photo, I am instantly transported to that moment in time when I shot it, that memory takes over. It's a beautiful art form to express creativity as well, and it's been a passion of mine since my childhood.
I created this website so I could showcase all this and through this process, make it easier for you to connect with me. If you like what you see, head over to the contact section below and send me a text. I would love to hear from you!

If you've read about my profile so far and you found it interesting, studies show that knowing what type of music a person listens to would say a lot about them.
Also, I've been known for my good taste in music and I've always wanted to share the latest and greatest hits through an easy medium, so here's a Spotify Playlist I've created called My Everyday: A dynamic playlist of what's on my daily roster of music.
To those HRs out there who need a more organized and minimal version of my information, you can download the trusted PDF version here:
Resume on the Web has been a project that I've been focused on since the early 2014s. I didn't want my information to be displayed on just a sheet of paper that only HRs or Talent Scouts had the privilege of reading, I wanted it to be accessible to everyone. And that's how this project was conceptualized.
I constantly update it to match who I am, because just like this website, I don't have a static personality. I use the latest technologies and use this platform to challenge myself into learning new frameworks, new build tools, experiment with new design ideas while keeping the core principle of getting to know me as simple as possible.
This version of the project was built using NextJS (React), Tailwind CSS for their utility-first classes and Vercel to host the site.
I hope you loved the site as much as I enjoyed developing it and learning from it. If you did, please let me know using the contact form above, I would be ecstatic to hear from you.
If you would like to peek around the code and see what makes this website tick, the complete source code can be found on GitHub. You can even edit it to make your own version of the site, as this project is copylefted under the permissive MIT License.
