Naeema Mohammed Sageer

Design Engineer

AI-forward design engineer with a multidisciplinary background in filmmaking and philosophy, I've designed and developed products ranging from mobile apps to data dashboards, bridging research-driven design with technical implementation. Philosophy taught me to ask the right questions, film taught me to tell compelling stories, and design lets me put both into practice.
