Hodge was born and raised in Sydney, Australia. His father is Irish and was raised in Australia; his mother is Chinese and was raised in Singapore. He described his environment as predominantly white. Hodge stated that he struggled with shame about his Chinese ancestry during childhood, which he attributed to internalized ideas about Asian men that he saw in mainstream media.

He severely injured his knee during a game when he was 21 and used a wheelchair during rehabilitation for the injury.
