Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the sustained national or international acclaim required for an alien of extraordinary ability. The AAO concluded that even with supplemental evidence, the petitioner did not meet the requisite number of regulatory criteria, noting specifically that many of the petitioner's competition wins were local or regional, not nationally or internationally recognized.
