Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish the 'national importance' of her proposed endeavor, which is the first prong of the Dhanasar framework. While her work as a physical therapist was found to have substantial merit, she did not demonstrate that her individual practice would have a broader impact on her field, create significant economic effects, or have other implications on a national scale.
