Rayah Markeith Williams appeals from his jury-verdict conviction for using, carrying, and brandishing a firearm during or in relation to a crime of violence. He argues on appeal that the evidence produced at trial was insufficient to support the jury’s verdict. Williams properly preserved this issue for appeal. Viewing the evidence in *989 the light most favorable to the verdict, a rational trier of fact could have found that the Government proved all of the essential elements regarding this charge. See United States v. Lankford, 196 F.3d 563, 575-76 (5th Cir. 1999).

Williams also argues that the prosecutor made an improper remark during closing arguments. Because Williams did not object on this basis in district court, this argument is reviewed for plain error only. See United States v. Johnston, 127 F.3d 380, 392 (5th Cir. 1997). Examination of the prosecutor’s challenged argument does not indicate that it was improper. See United States v. Binker, 795 F.2d 1218, 1223-24 (5th Cir. 1986). Williams has therefore failed to show plain error regarding the prosecutor’s closing argument.

Accordingly, the district court’s judgment of conviction is AFFIRMED.
