4,655 PointsThank you so much for taking the time to reply :) I sincerely appreciate it! I did it exactly the same way and got this message.. "Bummer: Use the .toUpperCase() method to convert the role string to all upper-case.
"
let firstName = "Kayla"; let lastName = "Howard"; let role = 'developer'; let msg = firstName + " " + lastName + ":" + role + "."; role.toUpperCase();

toUpperCase()method to the role variable from the previous step. - There should be a space after the colon, and there shouldn't be a period at the end.

4,655 PointsOh my Gosh!! Thanks so much!! I wasn't adding the space after the colon... I though I was, as it turns out I didn't. I'm working off my phone, so sometimes it auto corrects what I type.
