MEMORANDUM **

Edward Keith Striley, Jr. appeals from the 151-month sentence imposed following his guilty-plea conviction for bank robbery, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2113(a). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Striley contends the sentence is substantively unreasonable because the district court failed to exercise its discretion to vary from the career offender Guideline, which he argues is not supported by empirical evidence or national experience. The record reflects that the district court was aware of its discretion to depart from the Guideline, and in light of the totality of the circumstances and the 18 U.S.C. § 3553(a) sentencing factors, the bottom-of-the-Guidelines sentence is substantively reasonable. See United States v. Carty, 520 F.3d 984, 993 (9th Cir. 2008) (en banc); United States v. Henderson, 649 F.3d 955, 964 (9th Cir. 2011) (“District courts are not obligated to vary from the [career offender] Guidelines on policy grounds if they do not have, in fact, a policy disagreement with them.”).

AFFIRMED.
