Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that he met at least three of the ten regulatory criteria. The Director had already credited the petitioner with meeting two criteria (awards and judging), but the AAO found the petitioner did not successfully establish that he met additional criteria, such as membership in an association requiring outstanding achievements.
