Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because while the AAO found that the petitioner met three preliminary evidentiary criteria (judging, published material, and a critical role), they ultimately failed the final merits determination. The AAO concluded that the evidence did not demonstrate that the petitioner had achieved the necessary sustained national or international acclaim to be considered among the small percentage at the very top of their field.
