Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that her proposed endeavor as a wellness specialist had national importance. The AAO determined the endeavor's impact would be limited to her direct patients and lacked a business plan or other evidence showing a broader, national-level impact. The petitioner therefore did not satisfy the first prong, or the subsequent prongs, of the Dhanasar framework for a national interest waiver.
