Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that she met the minimum of three required evidentiary criteria for the classification. The AAO reviewed the evidence for the 'leading or critical role' criterion, which the Director had initially granted, and found it unpersuasive due to vague, inconsistent claims and a lack of verifiable documentary evidence.
