Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to provide sufficient evidence to meet the minimum of three evidentiary criteria for an individual of extraordinary ability. The AAO found the documentation for awards, memberships, and judging did not meet the regulatory standards, and the petitioner failed to submit any published material about himself. Although the petitioner met one criterion (artistic exhibitions), he did not establish eligibility for the classification sought.
