Personal life

Dagi was born in Makhachkala, Dagestan in the North Caucasus of Russia. Following the death of her father, the family immigrated to Austria in 2003, settling in Bludenz. They later received Austrian citizenship and changed their surname to Dagi, due to the often misspellings and mispronunciations of their original surname; taking the name Dagi was meant to honor their homeland of Dagestan.^[3] Dagi worked at Zusammen:Österreich prior to becoming Miss Austria, and graduated from BG Bludenz. She became Miss Vorarlberg and won Miss Austria in 2012.
