About Me

My name is Sunay Dagli and I am a 5th year master's student at the University of California, Berkeley.

I am pursuing a Masters of Science degree in Electrical Engineering & Computer Science (EECS) through the College of Engineering. I am passionate about the intersection between software development and impact-driven fields such as sustainability, and my academic intersests include optimization modeling, data structures, sustainable technologies, and software development..

Outside of academics, my hobbies include playing and watching basketball (Lakers 2024 Champs, of course), photography, hiking, reading, learning new things on Youtube, binging Netflix shows, and playing PC games.

I am always looking for exciting, new opportunities, so feel free to contact me at sunaydagli@berkeley.edu or take a look at my resume.
