Dennii began modeling full-time when she moved to Las Vegas in 2013. | Nerd, model, and mechanic seem to be conflicting characteristics, but the distinct descriptions find a fusion in K&N model, Dennii. A blonde bombshell born in the Czech Republic, she moved to the states as an infant. Dennii grew up in Florida, aggressively pursuing academic achievement at Largo High School. She eventually landed the coveted spot of salutatorian in her graduating class. Involved in at least ten clubs, she served as president of student council and vice president of her class council.With high achievements at Largo, Dennii aimed for no less when considering a college. Ready for a new adventure, she courageously moved far from home to attend Hawaii Pacific University in Oahu. Dennii recounts, “I moved to Hawaii actually on my own whim. I was one of maybe less than 20 people that moved to an out of state college to pursue college degrees. It was an amazing experience and chapter. I learned how to grow up like washing my own laundry and cooking.” 
Keeping it in the family, Dennii has a cousin who led a successful modeling career in the 90's. | In Oahu, the Czech native began a degree in marine biology. She surfed the shores of Hawaii in her downtime, soaking up vitamin “sea.” Dennii eventually transferred to the University of South Florida in Tampa. Here, she finished her degree and graduated with honors. Never far from the water, she also acquired her scuba diving certification.At the end of her college career, Dennii was as ambitious as ever. She would soon encounter two intersecting worlds: modeling and racing. A new hope blossomed, and an old wish was dusted off. Dennii shares, “It wasn’t until after college I started sparking an interest in cars, the whole motorsport industry in general.” Modeling, however, had long stuck in her mind. She confides, “I was very young when my mom sent me to the old modeling school called Barbizon. I learned so much there, and I wanted to continue on. Unfortunately, we weren’t financially equipped to pay for all the costs. So...I decided I will do this one day when it’s fitting.” 
The 28 year old model enjoyed working with K&N on the 2017 Calendar shoot. | She soon discovered that cars and catwalks can coexist. In fact, Dennii found some of her most notable bookings in automotive-related advertisements: Gran Turismo, VORE Racing, GT Radial, Nissan, Exotics Racing, Loud Mouth Exhaust, and of course, K&N filters. Her favorite modeling memory is at a racing event. She recalls, “I was honorably chosen to work as one of the official umbrella grid girls for the 2016 Formula 1 Austin, Texas race. The whole experience was just remarkable. Standing there smiling, I was proud to hold the flag of my driver and watch the crew prep the cars for the race.” She also enjoyed, “learning the different techniques they used on those mean machines.”Deeming it her bread and butter, Dennii is committed to her modeling career, but she is just as excited when discussing cars and racing. While gaining 50,000+ followers on Instagram, she has also become, “a hardcore car enthusiast and amateur driver.” A cool collection of beauty and brains, she professes, “I do actually work on cars when I have the opportunity to do so. I am still actively trying to practice drifting my new setup S13 that is ready to go.” In short, she loves it. A self-proclaimed nerd, Dennii quips, “Word to the wise, don’t be afraid to have a convo with me about cars.” IG Handle: @theofficialdennii
