   MEMORANDUM

Ramon Alberto Rabago-Felix appeals from his jury-trial conviction and 120-month sentence for possession of cocaine with intent to distribute, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1). We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and we affirm.

Rabago-Felix contends that there is insufficient evidence to support his conviction because the evidence does not reflect that he knowingly possessed cocaine. After viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the prosecution, the record reflects that “any rational trier of fact could have found the essential elements of the crime beyond a reasonable doubt.” United States v. Diaz-Cardenas, 351 F.3d 404, 407 (9th Cir.2003) (also noting that a jury can infer knowledge when an individual is the driver and sole occupant of a vehicle, or in possession of a large quantity of drugs).

AFFIRMED. 
      
       This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
