Hi,
If you are coming from Windows, I'd suggest Linux Mint or Ubuntu, they are both very simple to use. I am glad you are joining the Linux team,
Good luck! :D

I'd also suggest Mint, more specifically KDE. I swich distributions occasionally just to see what's out there but I've had the best luck with Mint KDE (at least with my hardware). Everything works out of the box. And KDE has wobbly windows which is pretty flashy!
