Hey jonathan machuca 👋

Currently you're creating a new variable that only holds the role variable in uppercase. What you'll want to do instead is add the toUpperCase() method to role variable inside the msg variable to end up with the entire string with your full name:

const msg = firstName + ' ' + lastName + ' ' + role.toUpperCase()
