Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility under at least three of the ten regulatory criteria. The director and the AAO found that the evidence submitted for the 'prizes or awards' criterion was insufficient, as the petitioner did not prove that most of her awards were nationally or internationally recognized, beyond the awarding entities themselves.
