About Ali Stoner
Ali Stoner or ‘Roving Haggis’ as she is known on social media, is a Scottish cook, previous Masterchef Australia contestant and social media influencer. Born in Glasgow, she currently lives in Melbourne, Australia with her husband, family and two dogs. 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 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 and the UK.
