Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility by meeting at least three of the required evidentiary criteria. The Director initially found only one criterion (judging) was met. The AAO determined that published materials did not qualify as they were not 'about' the petitioner, as her name was not mentioned, and the evidence was insufficient to establish contributions of major significance or a leading/critical role for organizations with a distinguished reputation.
