Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate she was 'well positioned' to advance her proposed endeavor, which is the second prong of the Dhanasar framework for National Interest Waivers. Although the AAO noted some errors in the Director's evaluation of evidence, it ultimately agreed that the petitioner's record did not sufficiently establish her ability to advance her proposed work in mental health services for children and families post-pandemic.
