What No One Tells You About Succeeding as a Creator in Singapore (Ainul Md Razib)

When Ainul Md Razib first started posting about tech careers on TikTok, almost no one in Singapore was doing it. While most of the platform was filled with dance trends and food reviews, she chose to talk about coding and professional growth - becoming one of the first local career-focused creators. Today, Ainul is a Cybersecurity Engineer at IBM, known online as AinLovesCode. She’s been named to the Singapore 100 Women in Tech 2025 list, and her work continues to champion diversity and inclusion in the industry.
