Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish eligibility by meeting the initial evidentiary requirement of satisfying at least three regulatory criteria. The AAO noted the petitioner abandoned the claim for the 'published material' criterion on appeal and did not successfully rebut the director's finding that judging a high school students' speech contest did not qualify as judging the work of others in her field.
