SARA SUTTON FELL ’92

Sara is the CEO and founder of FlexJobs, an award-winning, innovative career website for telecommuting, flexible, freelance, and part-time jobs. Sara had the idea for FlexJobs in 2006 while she was pregnant with her first son, after she experienced first-hand the frustrating search for professional jobs that also offered flexible work options. Having also co-founded an entry-level employment service in 1995 with fellow Ellis classmate Rachel BELL Robards ’92, she has long been passionate about helping people find jobs that make their lives better.  In that spirit, Sara is also the founder of 1 Million for Work Flexibility, an advocacy initiative, as well as Remote.co, a resource for remote companies. Sara is a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley, and Harvard University’s John F. Kennedy School of Government, and in 2014 she was named one of the World Economic Forum’s Young Global Leaders.
“My advice to Ellis students is take advantage of the opportunities that Ellis offers!  It’s a special environment, and the educational, artistic, athletic, social, and other programs are unique and will only help broaden your views on the world.”
