Richard Mills-tetteh (richie)

Richie grew up in Norman, Oklahoma, but hails from Ghana, West Africa. Mr. Mills is the current Chief of Marketing + Engagement at Bethany Children’s Health Center. He graduated from The University of Oklahoma in 2012 with a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism and Public Relations. During his time at The University of Oklahoma, Mr. Mills was a member of the Xi Delta Chapter of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, Inc. Richie also completed internships with Procter & Gamble, Devon Energy, and the Oklahoma City Thunder.

After graduating, Richie worked as the communications coordinator for Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt before accepting a position at Bethany Children’s Health Center in April 2015. In July 2019, Richard took the leap and accepted a position at Love’s Travel Stops before returning to Bethany Children’s two years later to become the Director of Corporate Communications.

As an avid blogger and social media enthusiast, Richard seeks to inspire others through his Rich Honesty brand. He enjoys writing, traveling, photography, videography, public speaking, fashion, sports and chasing theme parks across the country with his wife, Kristina. Mr. Mills believes that we are all unique in our own way. But we were all put on this earth for one purpose: to serve one another using our God-given talents.

Richie and his wife have two children, Kodi and Jackson Kobe.

“I was told many times that I wouldn't be able to chase my dreams because I was born with Sickle Cell Anemia. Not only am I fulfilling my purpose by working at a Hospital where I get to tell the stories of patients who inspire me every day, but I'm also using my creative intellect to help others create memories through photography and videography. There's nothing like working for an organization I love while running a business that allows me to use my talents to help others capture lasting memories.”
