Kusum Bhattarai Sharma

B.S. Computer Science • Texas State University • Class of 2027

I'm a CS student at Texas State who'd rather build than talk about it. My work sits where latency, AI, and data meet — real-time XR voice agents, RAG-powered research tooling, and geographic health analysis. 3.88 GPA, a few hackathon wins, and plenty still on the build list.

1. e4

Undergraduate Research Assistant

Texas State University

Jan 2024 – Dec 2025

Developed Python algorithms using k-means clustering to analyze course-taking patterns across 500+ middle/high school students, enabling research team to identify STEM pathway trends across diverse student populations.
Lead author on qualitative research manuscript examining STEM+C enrollment at a Hispanic-Serving Institution, analyzing data from 168 undergraduates and 1,000+ summer camp survey responses.

2. Nf3

AI & Data Researcher

THRC, Texas State University

Jan 2025 – Present

Engineered multi-source data integration pipeline merging five years of CDC BRFSS SMART survey data (2015–2019) with MSA-level Distress Community Index (DCI) spatial statistics, producing a master dataset for population health analysis.
Implemented spatial analytics (Global/Local Moran's I via PySAL, KNN spatial weights k=6, spatial Gini coefficient) and authored structured methodological documentation for data pipeline reproducibility.
Developed MSA-level aggregation and LISA cluster classification (HH/LL/HL/LH) with population-weighted shares, enabling identification of geographic health disparity patterns across U.S. metro areas.

3. Bc4

Student Software Developer

Center of Analytics & Data Science, Texas State University

Sep 2025 – Present

Architected AI-driven proposal optimization engine implementing Hybrid RAG pipeline with FAISS vector search and cosine similarity ranking to evaluate narrative competency and provide actionable content restructuring recommendations.
Built faculty competency module using polymorphic web scraping with k-means clustering for research categorization, reducing team evaluation time by 80% and auto-calculating a 0–10 "Fit Score" against federal solicitation criteria.

4. O-O

Undergraduate Research Assistant

Department of Engineering, Texas State University

Dec 2025 – Present

Engineered low-latency voice-to-voice XR agent for Magic Leap 2, integrating async FastAPI and Socket.IO backend with event-driven architecture for concurrent full-duplex audio streams, achieving <150ms audio processing latency.
Built context-aware knowledge engine using LangChain and ChromaDB, indexing 3 technical safety manuals with semantic search, deployed to 40 students achieving >90% user satisfaction.
