Influence on math and me
Rochelle Gutierrez has been working as a professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign since 1996. Her main focus is on how intersectionality can play a role when learning mathematics. Some of her research is based on how to better teach underprivileged students mathematics and how teachers and professors can better assist the students. She also has researched how math can impact a students place in society and power. You can be like her if you help unpriveleged students.

Achievements
In 2010 she was given the Outstanding Faculty Award for Service at UIUC.
In 2011 Gutierrez received the The Association of Mathematics Teacher Educators award (AMTE award), which is an organization who recognize teachers who are dedicated in improving Mathematical education.
In 2016 she was awarded the Iris M. Carl Equity and Leadership Award.
In 2017 she received the Social Justice Award, which is given to those who spend their time of helping the minority.
For the school year of 2018-2019 Gutierrez received the Outstanding Undergraduate Teaching Award at the University of Illinois-Urbana
