She’s also a consultant for real estate operations at Pepperdine University in Malibu, California — the same school she attended for her undergraduate degree. She’s also a registered yoga teacher.

2. She’s dated high-profile stars in the past.

Savoie previously dated actor Jeremy Piven, a source told PEOPLE. The two dated while she was studying at Pepperdine. Savoie was valedictorian at the Malibu college when she graduated in 2014.
