Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim. The petitioner's achievements as a competitive acrobat were from several years prior to filing, and she now sought to work as a coach, which the AAO determined was not the same area of expertise in which she claimed extraordinary ability.
