Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Michael J. Obus, J.), rendered August 6, 2015, convicting defendant, upon her plea of guilty, of robbery in the second degree, and sentencing her to a term of five years, unanimously affirmed.
Defendant made a valid waiver of her right to appeal (see People v. Bryant, 28 N.Y.3d 1094, 45 N.Y.S.3d 335, 68 N.E.3d 60 [2016] ), which forecloses review of her claims that her sentence was excessive and that the court should have granted youthful offender treatment (see People v. White, 141 A.D.3d 463, 36 N.Y.S.3d 9 [1st Dept.2016], lv. denied 28 N.Y.3d 975, 43 N.Y.S.3d 262, 66 N.E.3d 8 [2016] ). Regardless of the validity and scope of defendant's waiver of her right to appeal, we perceive no basis for reducing the sentence or substituting a youthful offender adjudication.
