What Clients Say
“Nyssa was an absolute delight to work with! She was warm, kind, and positive throughout the whole process, as well as being super available and responsive to texts and anything that came up. I felt very supported and knew I was in good hands! She was even able to show me my new condo on very, very short notice. Super appreciate all of her efforts, and I would highly recommend Nyssa and The Agency for anyone in the market for a new home.”
Hayley Jean
Condo Buyer, Halifax
“Working with Nyssa was an absolute pleasure. From our very first consultation, it was clear that she genuinely cared about helping us find exactly what we were looking for. Her warm personality and genuine kindness made the entire process feel less stressful and more exciting. What stands out the most is how attentive and responsive she has been, always quick to answer questions, offer guidance, and provide updates, even during off hours. Nyssa consistently went above and beyond to make sure we felt supported and informed every step of the way. We can't recommend Nyssa highly enough.”

Behind Every Home,
A Person Who Gets It
My life has taken me across North America. Philadelphia, Northern Virginia's Loudoun County, Toronto, Vancouver, Halifax, and Seattle. In each place, I didn't just live, I built real relationships that taught me what makes communities work.
Professionally, I've worn many hats, from modeling to becoming a top sales associate in retail, to serving as a top-performing CSA agent at Halifax Airport. My entrepreneurial spirit truly shone when I helped my husband build and scale a national telecom infrastructure company, expanding from Vancouver to offices in Calgary, Toronto, and Halifax, all while raising our three boys.
In 2023, we chose Fall River, Nova Scotia for our family. After passing my NSAA real estate exam on the first attempt, I joined The Agency Halifax in July 2025. I now serve communities across the region, from Fall River and Waverley to St. Margaret's Bay, Hubbards, Chester, and the South Shore.

Real estate is personal. It's about listening to what someone actually needs, then using everything I know to help them get there.
