Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the high standards for an alien of extraordinary ability. The director determined the petitioner did not establish sustained national or international acclaim. Specifically, for the 'prizes or awards' criterion, the petitioner did not provide sufficient evidence to prove the prestige of the award or his specific role on the winning team, and the unsupported assertions of counsel were not considered evidence.
