ORDER AND JUDGMENT *

Defendant-Appellant Jesus HerreraFabela seeks to challenge the length of his sentence. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. Mr. Herrera-Fabela’s appointed counsel has filed an Anders brief and a motion to withdraw as attorney of record concurrent with the filing of this appeal. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Mr. Herrera-Fabela was provided a copy of his counsel’s Anders brief but failed to file a response. The government has declined to file a brief. Based on our independent review of the record, id. at 744, 87 S.Ct. 1396, we conclude that Mr. *708 Herrera-Fabela’s appeal is meritless. Accordingly, we AFFIRM the sentence and GRANT counsel’s motion to withdraw.

BACKGROUND

Pursuant to a plea agreement, Mr. Herrera-Fabela pleaded guilty to one-count of Reentry of a Deported Alien Previously Convicted of an Aggravated Felony, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326(a)(1),(2) and (b)(2). As part of his plea agreement, Mr. Herrera-Fabela waived many of his constitutional rights, however, he did not waive his right to appeal.

At the plea hearing, Mr. Herrera-Fabela was informed of his potential penalty, “a maximum of 20 years imprisonment, $250,000 fine, not more than three years supervised release and ... a special penalty assessment.” R., Vol. I, Tr. at 23-24 (Plea Hearing, dated July 7, 2006). The district court asked Mr. Herrera-Fabela if his attorney explained that there are other potential indirect consequences to pleading guilty; noting, for example, that the conviction might make it more difficult for Mr. Herrera-Fabela to lawfully reenter the country. He responded, “Yes, sir.” Id. at 24. He also expressed to the court that he was satisfied with the advice and representation of his attorney.

The district court asked Mr. HerreraFabela if he had any questions regarding his plea agreement and he responded, “No, your Honor.” Id. at 30. Mr. HerreraFabela also affirmed that, after discussion with his attorney, he signed the agreement freely and voluntarily. Mr. HerreraFabela then pleaded guilty.

The Presentence Report assigned Mr. Herrera-Fabela an offense level of 21 and a criminal history category of V under the United States Sentencing Guidelines (“Guidelines”). The resulting Guidelines imprisonment range was 70 to 87 months. The district court sentenced Mr. HerreraFabela to 84 months’ imprisonment.

DISCUSSION

There are no meritorious issues relating to Mr. Herrera-Fabela’s sentence. Mr. Herrera-Fabela knowingly and voluntarily pleaded guilty pursuant to a plea agreement and the district coui't imposed a reasonable sentence upon him.

First, Mr. Hexrera-Fabela knowingly and voluntarily pleaded guilty under a plea agreement. Whether a plea was knowing and voluntary is a question of law that is reviewed de novo. United States v. Gigot, 147 F.3d 1193,1197 (10th Cir. 1998).

Rule 11(b)(2) of the Federal Rules of Cx’iminal Procedure provides that, “Before accepting a plea of guilty or nolo contendere, the court must address the defendant personally in open court and determine that the plea is voluntary and did not result from force, thi’eats, or promises (other than promises in a plea agreement).” We have held that, “to determine whether a plea was voluntary, the court must assess whether the defendant fully understood the consequences of the plea.” United States v. Williams, 919 F.2d 1451, 1456 (10th Cir. 1990).

We conclude from the record that Mr. Herrera-Fabela fully understood the direct consequence of his guilty plea. Specifically, at the plea hearing, Mr. HerreraFabela was made aware of the potential penalties for the offense. The district court, moreover, went further and ensured that he was generally aware that there may be other potential indirect consequences for pleading guilty. Additionally, Mr. Herrera-Fabela affirmed that he signed his plea agreement freely and voluntarily. Accordingly, we conclude that Mr. Herrera-Fabela knowingly and voluntarily pleaded guilty. Nothing in the record suggests to the contrary.

*709 Second, the sentence was imposed in accordance with the law. Sentences are reviewed “for reasonableness under a deferential abuse of discretion standard.” United States v. Haley, 529 F.3d 1308, 1311 (10th Cir. 2008). Sentences imposed within the correctly calculated Guidelines range may be presumed to be substantively reasonable on appeal. Id. This presumption may be rebutted by showing improper consideration of the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) factors. Id.

The advisory Guidelines range was 70-87 months. Mr. Herrera-Fabela was sentenced to 84 months’ imprisonment, which was within the applicable advisory Guidelines range. Mr. Herrera-Fabela does not argue that the court improperly considered the § 3553(a) factors, nor do we discern any indication that it did so. Therefore, this was a substantively reasonable sentence imposed in accordance with the law.

CONCLUSION

Our review of the record reveals that Mr. Herrera-Fabela knowingly and voluntarily pleaded guilty. Furthermore, the record reveals no facts or circumstances that would render Mr. Herrera-Fabela’s sentence substantively unreasonable. Lastly, we discern no other arguably meritorious claims that call for our review.

Accordingly, we AFFIRM the sentence and GRANT counsel’s motion to withdraw.
