Decision Summary
Although the Director found the petitioner met three initial evidentiary criteria, the appeal was dismissed on final merits determination. The AAO concluded the petitioner did not demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim, noting a lack of acclaimed work after 2008, and failed to prove she is among the small percentage at the very top of her field.
