Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO, applying the two-part Kazarian analysis, found that the petitioner met the statutory and regulatory requirements. The director had initially determined the petitioner did not establish the requisite extraordinary ability, but on appeal, the AAO found the petitioner submitted sufficient evidence under at least three criteria, including judging the work of others, to warrant approval.
