Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate eligibility for the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria. Although the Director initially found the petitioner met two criteria, the AAO disagreed with the 'awards' criterion, finding the petitioner did not establish the national or international significance of the awards. As the AAO only found one criterion (display of work) to be met, the appeal was dismissed.
