Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed primarily because the petitioner failed to establish that she intended to continue working in her area of expertise, fashion design. The AAO found that her current role as a general manager for a business magazine, overseeing sales, art direction, and website design, was not a continuation of her work as a fashion designer.
