   MEMORANDUM

Lusine Zakaryan, a native and citizen of Armenia, petitions for review of the Board of Immigration Appeals’ order dismissing her appeal from an immigration judge’s decision denying her application for asylum, withholding of removal, and protection under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). We have jurisdiction under 8 U.S.C. § 1252. We review for substantial evidence the agency’s factual findings, applying the standards governing adverse credibility determinations pursuant to the REAL ID Act. Shrestha v. Holder, 590 F.3d 1034, 1039-40 (9th Cir.2010). We deny the petition for review.

Substantial evidence supports the agency’s adverse credibility, determination based on Zakaryan’s inconsistent testimony regarding the pattern of events leading to her departure from Armenia, her apparently evasive demeanor at the hearing, and her untruthfulness on prior visa applications. See id. at 1048 (holding an adverse credibility determination reasonable under the “totality of circumstances”). The agency reasonably rejected Zakaryan’s explanations for these inconsistencies as non-responsive or unconvincing. See Rivera v. Mukasey, 508 F.3d 1271, 1275 (9th Cir. 2007) (upholding an IJ’s adverse credibility determination based on a petitioner’s inconsistent testimony). In the absence of credible testimony of past persecution or a reasonable probability well-founded fear of future persecution, Zakaryan’s asylum and withholding of removal claims fail. See Garcia-Milian v. Holder, 755 F.3d 1026, 1031-33 & n. 4 (9th Cir.2014) (“An applicant who fails to satisfy the standard of proof for asylum also fails to satisfy the more stringent standard for withholding of removal.”). Zakaryan’s CAT claim also fails because it is based on the same statements the agency found not credible and she does not point to other evidence showing it is “more likely than not” she will be tortured if returned to Armenia. Id. at 1033.

Accordingly, Zakaryan’s petition for review is DENIED. 
      
       This disposition is not appropriate for publi- ' cation and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R, 36-3.
