Prior to that, Toosi worked for the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, where she primarily covered higher education but also managed to report from Iraq, South Korea, Thailand and Germany.
Toosi has always had a strong interest in migration and refugee issues. While in Milwaukee, she wrote a series about Hmong refugees.
