PER CURIAM:

       Aimee Kelly appeals the district court’s order upholding the Administrative Law

Judge’s (ALJ) denial of Kelly’s application for disability insurance benefits. “In social

security proceedings, a court of appeals applies the same standard of review as does the

district court. That is, a reviewing court must uphold the determination when an ALJ has

applied correct legal standards and the ALJ’s factual findings are supported by substantial

evidence.” Brown v. Comm’r Soc. Sec. Admin., 873 F.3d 251, 267 (4th Cir. 2017)

(citation and internal quotation marks omitted). “Substantial evidence is that which a

reasonable mind might accept as adequate to support a conclusion. It consists of more

than a mere scintilla of evidence but may be less than a preponderance.” Pearson v.

Colvin, 810 F.3d 204, 207 (4th Cir. 2015) (citation and internal quotation marks omitted).

“In reviewing for substantial evidence, we do not undertake to reweigh conflicting

evidence, make credibility determinations, or substitute our judgment for that of the ALJ.

Where conflicting evidence allows reasonable minds to differ as to whether a claimant is

disabled, the responsibility for that decision falls on the ALJ.” Hancock v. Astrue, 667

F.3d 470, 472 (4th Cir. 2012) (brackets, citation, and internal quotation marks omitted).

       We have reviewed the record and perceive no reversible error. The ALJ applied

the correct legal standards in evaluating Kelly’s claims for benefits, and the ALJ’s factual

findings are supported by substantial evidence.      Accordingly, we affirm the district

court’s judgment upholding the denial of benefits.          See Kelly v. Berryhill, No.

2:17-cv-00006-BO (E.D.N.C. Mar. 23, 2018). We dispense with oral argument because



                                             2
the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court

and argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                                              AFFIRMED
