Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the required minimum of three evidentiary criteria. The Director and the AAO concluded that the petitioner only satisfied two criteria (judging and scholarly articles), finding the evidence for other claims, such as membership in associations, insufficient to meet the high standards required by the regulation.
