Nyssa Cunningham

Owner & Director

Nyssa built Nesbed College around a belief that adult education should be practical, honest and personal. Before founding the college, she spent more than ten years in human resources and workforce training, where she saw first-hand how much a few targeted skills could change someone's career.

She still teaches a module of the Small Business Management program and meets with every new cohort during orientation.
