Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the minimum of three evidentiary criteria required for the classification. The AAO reviewed the evidence and disagreed with the Director's initial assessment, concluding that the petitioner only satisfied two criteria and that the evidence for claimed awards and association memberships was insufficient.
