Bhojwani moved to New York City in 1987 as a student at Teachers College, Columbia University and obtained her Master's degree in education with an emphasis on teaching English with the intention of returning to Belize to teach.
She declined to pursue a career in education when the New York City Department of Education would not help her obtain a green card.

In April 2002, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg appointed her to the newly created role of Commissioner of Immigrant Affairs, where she expanded protections and services for the city's undocumented immigrants, domestic workers, and non-English speakers.
She credits this role as demonstrating to her the power of a truly representative government, including having immigrants in positions of political influence to support immigrants.
She served as Commissioner for two years, leaving the post in May 2004.
Bhojwani continued to work in philanthropy for Bloomberg, and moved to London for a time.
Bhojwani founded New American Leaders in 2010 after the United States Congress failed to create a path to citizenship for millions of undocumented immigrants and Arizona enacted Arizona SB 1070.
