Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the minimum of three required criteria to establish extraordinary ability. The AAO found that a submitted award was regional, not national, in scope. Additionally, the published materials were deemed insufficient as they consisted of local media coverage, advertisements, and promotional pieces, which did not demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim.
