Hi!

I'm a first year MPhil student starting my project on black hole growth and dark matter annihilation. I have been struggling with some fundamental things such as getting connected. I would like to be able to discuss my work with people but I am not really sure where to start.

Presumably you're doing your project with a supervisor, in a research group, in a astro department. So, talk to (a) your supervisor (b) the people in your group and (c) the people in the department. For a start.
