Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria. Although the Director initially found the petitioner met two criteria, the AAO determined that the evidence did not support the 'high salary' claim, as it lacked comparative data for others in the field. The AAO also found the petitioner failed to establish having a 'leading or critical role' for a distinguished organization.
