Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the national importance of her specific proposed endeavor, as required by the Dhanasar framework. The decision found that the petitioner focused on her personal experience and the general importance of the financial manager industry, rather than demonstrating the specific, prospective, and broader implications of her work for the nation. The AAO affirmed the Director's conclusion that the petitioner did not meet the requirements for a national interest waiver.
