Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed the final merits determination. Although the Director found the petitioner met at least three evidentiary criteria, the AAO concluded the overall evidence did not demonstrate sustained national or international acclaim, nor did it show the petitioner was among the small percentage at the very top of his field.
