I don’t know what I am doing wrong
You don’t have enough backslashes. Each double-quote inside the string needs to have a backslash before it.
"
That is a double-quote character.

When your overall string is surrounded by " ", then any double quote you want to actual appear in the string, must be escaped with the \
character. You are missing two \
characters. Also, you put a comma after I am a which is not part of the required final string in the instructions.
