Hello @loranallensmith! Welcome to Fedora!
Before we begin, please subscribe to the Fedora join mailing list at fedora-join@lists.fedoraproject.org. We use this list for general discussion, and it is also where the community shares tasks that need help.
These links are a good read to begin with. They tell you what the Free/Open Source community is about, and then they'll introduce you to Fedora: what Fedora is all about, and what we do, and of course, how we do it:
Next, when you're ready, could you please introduce yourself (preferably on the list) so that the community can get to know you? (Interests, skills, anything you wish to say about yourself really).
Finally, could you let us know how you learned about the Fedora project? Was it from a colleague, or social media, for example?
If you have any questions at all, please ask! We'll use this ticket to keep in touch! :)
In addition, could you provide some information to understand your requirements better? (You can write them in the introduction, or answer here if you feel more comfortable).
For example:
your experience with Free/Open Source Software (FOSS) communities/ecosystems:
your background/skills, for example:
your experience in communication platforms:
how much time are you looking to/are you able to spend on volunteering (approximate hours per week)?
Remember that this is not a job interview at all. This is just an icebreaker to help all your new friends get to know you quicker. The better we know you, the better we can support you in identifying Fedora activities that promise to be relevant for you.
Please write how much/whatever you wish. :).

Howdy everybody! :wave: Just wanted to drop a note here for better discoverability. I shared some answers and other info about myself over in a mailing list message earlier today: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/fedora-join@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/TM56YEUM42GDQJG3BU632FFKURVCBQS5/
Hi Allen, Sorry we have been lax in getting in touch with you.
Have you found your way around the Fedora ecosystem?
You have some mad skills and I hope you are still interested in joining Fedora.
I (and we) are here if you need anything. Probably the most difficult thing is that you have many areas of interest! I can tell you I think we need help with documentation.
Let me know if we can be of serice to you,
Regards, Matt
