Welcome to M J Alford, the place for changemakers inspired by timeless ideals and looking to implement them amid the challenges of modernity to build a more environmentally and socially sustainable future.

I’m Michael Alford, a creative entrepreneur with a background in business administration and finance. I’m on a mission to rediscover the timeless values that built civilisations across the globe and sustained them for millennia, and explore the possibilities that emerge when we consider their relevance for the modern age.

As a photographer and writer, I’m passionate about learning from the past – not just from the mistakes, but also from the successes, and shining a renewed light no those lessons for today’s generation. But greater still is my passion for empowering real-world enterprises breathing the lessons from the past into a new life in the present, and with skills in marketing, branding, photography, and business management, your story could just find a perfect avenue to the waiting audience.

M J Alford is the central hub for my online activities, and home of my flagship Michael’s Mission blog and podcast, available on all major social media and podcasting platforms. In addition to my published work, I am also available for commissioned projects to support individuals and organisations of all stripes to improve their branding and marketing.
