Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner did not establish the requisite extraordinary ability through extensive documentation. The evidence submitted failed to demonstrate by a preponderance of the evidence that the petitioner has achieved sustained national or international acclaim and is one of the small percentage who has risen to the very top of the field.
