Assalamu'alaykum wa rahmatullahi wa barakaatuh,
I hope you and your family are well inshaa Allaah. Mashaa Allaah upon the conversion and welcome to the family!
As you are a new convert, my advice is you should start with learning the basics such as how to pray, what constitutes and breaks a fast and how to cover your awrah (modesty). Those are the few basics you can start with.
In the meantime, try to find a Muslim sister near you who you trust of her Islamic knowledge who will teach you matters of Islaam and keep you company. Or else, if you live near the mosque, engage yourself in the congregational prayers as you will build relationships with the Muslims sisters, inshaa Allaah. But do keep in mind to take everything ONE step at a time. It is understandable for reverts to feel excited and wants to learn everything at once but whats better is to
learn a little but take actions immediately. During the time of the Prophet Muhammad :saw2:, whenever an ayaat of the Quran was revealed to him :saw2:, he took actions immediately. That is the wisdom why ayaat of the Quran was revealed one by one instead of everything at once.
Also, try to find a teacher [or a Muslim sister as I've mentioned] who can teach you the Quran; starting with the huroof then the tajweed. To be able to recite the Quran beautifully and eloquently require lots of practice and takes time. But know that even those who stumble upon reading the Quran, providing that that person keep on learning will also be rewarded by Allaah. Mashaa Allaah, indeed Allaah is The Most Generous to His creations.
The utmost important. . .
build a close relationship with The Creator. Even if you can't pray properly yet, can't read the Quran nor understand much of the Arabic words; He subhanahu wa Ta'ala listens to every of your prayers and understands you. Make constant dua'a to Allaah as ALL strengths come from Him and that may we be able to die in a state of a believer. We pray everyday, in every of our prayers to achieve the glad tidings [husnul khaatimah] during the ends of our life.
Qiyaam al-lail [the night prayers during late hours] is one of the best therapy for a believer. No matter what calamities come in your way, what waves hit you on your face, you'll be able to face it as you
look for strengths from your Qiyaam al-lail and your strong relationship with the Creator. During the time of Prophet Muhammad :saw2: and Salahuddin al-Ayubi [who managed to "win back" Palestine from the Christians], the types of men who'll be chose to join the army are those who observed Qiyaam al-lail. Mashaa Allaah.
As for the types of dua'a that one can supplicate daily, try browsing around these threads:

Know that when you work hard and give your best efforts to only please The Creator and not the creations, He subhanahu wa Ta'ala will love you more and more until you'll feel this bliss peace and happiness within your heart. During that time, that one precious feeling is NOTHING compared to the world and its luxuries, Mashaa Allaah
These are just SOME of the vast of goodness, charity and Ibaadah that one can observes in their daily life. And once when you're able to read the Quran a little, do not leave a day without reading and pondering upon it as Quran is a source of strengths too!
Take care and I wish you well in your journey, Ameen.
Was-salaam.
