Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that her proposed work has national importance. While her work as a production engineer in the automotive industry was found to have substantial merit, she did not sufficiently demonstrate that her specific endeavor would have broader implications for her field or the U.S. economy, as required under the Dhanasar framework.
