KILOLO KIJAKAZI, Acting Commissioner            MEMORANDUM*

                Defendant-Appellee.

                   Appeal from the United States District Court
                            for the District of Nevada
                 Richard F. Boulware II, District Judge, Presiding

                           Submitted January 11, 2023**
                             San Francisco, California

Before: WALLACE, SILVERMAN, OWENS, Circuit Judges.

      Glenda Brunson appeals pro se from the district court’s dismissal of her

complaint. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review the

district court’s jurisdiction de novo. See Carriger v. Lewis, 971 F.2d 329, 332 (9th

      *
             This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent
except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
      **
             The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
Cir. 1992). We affirm.

      The district court did not err in holding that it had no jurisdiction, as Brunson

failed to allege that she exhausted her administrative remedies as required under the

Federal Tort Claims Act, 28 U.S.C. § 2675(a), and the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C.

§ 405(g). See Vacek v. United States Postal Serv., 447 F.3d 1248, 1250 (9th Cir.

2006); Bass v. Soc. Sec. Admin., 872 F.2d 832, 833 (9th Cir. 1989).

      AFFIRMED.
