Ali Stoner
Ali Stoner or ‘Roving Haggis’ as she is know on social media, is a highly creative Scottish cook, previous Masterchef Australia contestant and social media influencer. Born in Glasgow, she currently lives in Melbourne, Australia with her husband and family.
A graduate of Art School, Ali spent her early career in London’s creative industry and was a partner in a leading retail design agency until 2008. In 2011, following a career break she moved to Australia with her family, continuing on her creative journey as an artist, largely working in glass, with a number of successful exhibitions.
In early 2022, encouraged by her friends and family, she was finally tempted to stretch her cooking talents further and applied to be a contestant on Masterchef Australia. During her time on the show, her creativity and inventiveness were a stand out and the experience encouraged her to take her food journey further. In May 2023, Ali launched her Instagram and TikTok presence under the Roving Haggis moniker and has seen her audience grow rapidly with a large global following, particularly in North America, Canada and of course Scotland.
