Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the first prong of the Dhanasar framework, which requires demonstrating that the proposed endeavor has national importance. The AAO concluded that while the petitioner's work as a nurse and instructor has merit, the evidence did not establish that her impact would extend beyond her specific patients, students, and workplaces to benefit the broader field of nursing or the U.S. healthcare industry as a whole.
