Career
In 2013, Ibrahim joined the Al Jazeera media network as a research fellow. Soon, she became an associate producer and continued to work with the network till 2017. During this time, she contributed to the Al Jazeera English show The Stream. In September 2017, she moved to New York and joined The Opposition with Jordan Klepper as a segment producer.

Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj
After Klepper's show ended, Nasreen became a news producer for Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj, a political satire show, in 2018. She worked on the Saudi Arabia episode, which made national headlines and was pulled off the air by Netflix for criticising the Saudi crown prince, Muhammad Bin Salman. Nasreen was involved in a total of 32 episodes on Patriot Act.

On August 21, 2020, after the cancellation of Patriot Act, Nasreen revealed that working on the series had caused her "mental anguish." She tweeted that she was "humiliated and gaslit, targeted and ignored" over the course of her work on the show. Other female producers on the show like Amy Zhang and Sheila V Kumar corroborated Nasreen's claims and said that Patriot Act had a toxic working environment that disproportionately affected women of colour.
