Sng attended Raffles Institution and graduated from Duke University, where he majored in International Comparative Studies.[1] He was a Commando when serving National Service (NS).[2] He worked as a product manager in a consulting firm where his pay was reportedly more than $6,000 a month, before he became a full-time Mediacorp artiste in May 2019.[3] In June 2021, Sng revealed that he had renewed his contract with the TV station.[4]
In September 2023, Sng was one of the actors chosen for the Mediacorp-Huanyu Entertainment partnership, where the Chinese talent management company will represent him in China.[5]

Sng took the Mensa test when he was in primary school and was admitted to the organisation where members are tested to have an IQ of above 130.[7]
Sng named American business magnate Elon Musk as one of the people he idolises the most.[8]
In February 2023, Sng and his fanclub, "The Baeden Club", raised more than $1,800 for the victims of the Turkey–Syria earthquake. The donations were later handed to the Singapore Red Cross Society.[9]
