Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that her proposed endeavor had national importance under the Dhanasar framework. While her work as a nurse was found to have substantial merit, she did not sufficiently demonstrate how her specific activities would impact the field of nursing on a national level, beyond her immediate employer and patients. The AAO concluded that arguments about a general nursing shortage were not enough to prove the national importance of her specific endeavor.
