Welcome to MacInsiders! Some great life goals you have there Seun! One great way to get involved is with MacInsiders, we have a Social event that will be happening on Sept 12th that you should definitely come out to so you can meet the rest of the MacInsiders staff and I'll share with you many ways you could get involved.
Definitely look into the CLAY and HORIZONS conferences run by the MSU. They are fantastic to volunteer for!
