Decision Summary

The motion to reconsider was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the national importance of her proposed endeavor under the Dhanasar framework. The AAO found that the petitioner's plans to contribute as a subject matter expert lacked evidence of a broad impact beyond her prospective employers. The supporting evidence, including expert opinion letters, was deemed too general and did not demonstrate how her specific work would have broader implications for the U.S. economy or her field.
