confused as to what I'm missing here. looked at the hints and couldn't figure it out either. Any tips? Thanks.

just please let me know what the issue is, thanks.

app.js 
let firstName = "Andrew";
let lastName = "Stewart";
let role = 'developer';
let msg = firstName + (" ") lastName + (": ") role ;

Hi Andrew,

The issue is on the msg variable. You don't need the parentheses. And you were missing two "+" signs.

let msg = firstName + " " + lastName + ": " + role ;

Hope that helps and happy coding!
