   ORDER AND JUDGMENT

PER CURIAM.

Pursuant to a plea agreement with ■ a broad appeal waiver, Sadie Jolynn Brown pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute and to distribute five kilograms or more of cocaine; to manufacture, to possess with intent to distribute, and to distribute 1,000 kilograms or more of marijuana; and to maintain drug-involved premises, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 846, 841(a)(1), 841(b)(1), and 856. The district court sentenced Ms. Brown to 120 months’ imprisonment, imposed a forfeiture judgment against her in the amount of $16,985,250.00 (jointly and severally with some of her co-defendants), and ordered the forfeiture of specified real and personal property, the sale of which would be applied toward her forfeiture judgment. Despite her appeal waiver, Ms. Brown filed a pro se notice of appeal.

The government has moved to enforce the appeal waiver under United States v. Hahn, 359 F.3d 1315 (10th Cir.2004) (en banc) (per curiam). In Hahn, 359 F.3d at 1325, we held that we would enforce appeal waivers as long as three conditions were met: (1) the matter on appeal falls within the scope of the' waiver; (2) the defendant-appellant knowingly and voluntarily waived h[er] appellate rights; and (3) enforcing the waiver will not result in a miscarriage of justice.

We appointed counsel to represent Ms. Brown in this matter. Counsel filed a response asserting that Ms. Brown received no benefit from her plea bargain and that her then-counsel provided constitutionally ineffective assistance. Counsel argues that a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel can be raised on direct appeal under the circumstances of this case, citing United States v. Gordon, 4 F.3d 1567, 1570 (10th Cir.1993).

We have long “recognized that the preferred avenue for challenging the effectiveness of counsel in a federal criminal case was via collateral attack.” Id. We have thought so “because a defendant often does not know [s]he has a meritorious ineffective assistance claim until collateral proceedings are begun, and because ineffective assistance claims often require consideration of evidence not yet in the record on direct appeal.” Id. We noted in Gordon that “[tjhere are rare instances, however, when we will entertain an ineffective assistance of counsel claim on direct appeal, including, inter alia, where the record is sufficient, or where the claim simply does not merit further factual inquiry.” Id. Accordingly, we will consider Ms. Brown’s argument.

“We review a challenge to a guilty plea based on a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel using the two-part test announced in Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 104 S.Ct. 2052, 80 L.Ed.2d 674 (1984).” Gordon, 4 F.3d at 1570. “Under this test, the defendant must show that h[er] counsel’s performance ‘fell below an objective standard of reasonableness,’ Strickland, 466 U.S. at 688, 104 S.Ct. at 2065, and that the deficient performance resulted in prejudice, id. at 691, 104 S.Ct. at 2066.” Id. “To show prejudice in the guilty plea context, the defendant must establish that ‘there is a reasonable probability that, but for counsel’s errors, [s]he would not have pleaded guilty and insisted on going to trial.’” Id. (quoting Hill v. Lockhart, 474 U.S. 52, 59, 106 S.Ct. 366, 88 L.Ed.2d 203 (1985)).

Ms. Brown’s argument is conelusory. She asserts that she obtained no benefit from her plea agreement and that this is clear from the record. But she does not explain how this is true with cites to the law or the record. The only document she attached to her response is the plea agreement, but she does not point us to any particular part of it. We conclude that Ms. Brown has failed to show that her original counsel’s negotiation of the plea agreement constituted ineffective assistance of counsel entitling her to relief.

Ms. Brown does not argue that the Hahn factors are not satisfied, and our review of the record in this case unequivocally demonstrates that the Hahn factors favor enforcing Ms. Brown’s waiver of appellate rights. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal on the basis of Hahn. 
      
       This panel has determined that oral argument would not materially assist the determination of this appeal. See Fed. R.App. P. 34(a)(2); 10th Cir. R. 34.1(G). The case is therefore ordered submitted without oral argument. This order and judgment is not binding precedent, except under the doctrines of law of the case, res judicata, and collateral estoppel. It may be cited, however, for its persuasive value consistent with Fed. R.App. P. 32.1 and 10th Cir. R. 32.1.
