Holbrook is a dabbler. As far back as she can remember, she has been passionate about trying new things, capitalizing on opportunities and exploring all that life has to offer. She follows her greatest loves in life—from rock shows to dance floors to runways—wherever her jet-set mentality leads. Two weeks ago she graduated from UNLV with a bachelor’s degree in journalism and media studies, a minor in film and plenty of excitement at what the future will bring. She now begins her first “real job” as Vegas Seven’s calendar coordinator and a nightlife writer.

Sebastian Ingrosso was born to create music. The Swedish producer’s father founded one of Europe’s first electronic dance-music labels, Loop Records. Ingrosso grew up toying around in his dad’s EDM studio, where at a young age he began producing and DJing; he released his first remix at 16. He has known his Swedish House Mafia partner DJ Steve Angello since he was 7 years old, and after meeting Axwell years later, the three teamed up to “Save the World” one tour at a time. As he gets ready to kick off his 2012 Wynn Resorts residency, Vegas Seven caught up with the passionate and forward-thinking Ingrosso.
