Mary Mills Ritchie is the Director of Client Services at Branning Wealth Management  where she helps ensure the client experience runs smoothly. 



With a B.A. in Mathematics from the University of Mississippi and induction into the Phi Beta Kappa honor society, Mary Mills brings a precision-oriented, detail-driven approach to client service that fits naturally in a firm built on rigorous financial planning. She ensures that the experience of working with Branning Wealth Management is organized, responsive, and genuinely attentive - from onboarding through every interaction that follows.

Before joining Branning Wealth Management, Mary Mills taught middle school mathematics. Prior to that, she spent four years working for a Mississippi Congressman on Capitol Hill and also several years in the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs at The University of Mississippi. She knows how to explain things in a way that actually makes sense, which is exactly what clients need when they’re navigating retirement planning decisions.

Mary Mills is deeply rooted in the Jackson community. She is actively involved in her local church and at both schools where her children attend. She is married with four children, and when she’s not at the office, you’ll most likely find her at one of her children’s sporting events, dance recitals,  school performances, or in the kitchen, which she approaches with the same enthusiasm she brings to everything else.
