Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the minimum of three evidentiary criteria required. While the Director initially found two criteria were met, the AAO reviewed the evidence and concluded that the petitioner only satisfied one (prizes or awards), withdrawing the finding on the judging criterion and determining the evidence for memberships and published material was insufficient.
