How do I diversify myself?

Entering Junior Year
Taking Multivariable Calculus
Got into an Academy in a course teaching CISCO (will get college credit)
4.02 unweighted GPA
I want to enter into data science

Im not sure what the best way to diversify myself. I didnt join many clubs last year which I regret and I’m not taking any sports (I could def make the soccer or track team but my workload for next year might be too much). What’s the best way I should diversify myself for colleges to give me the edge? What steps should I take? I’m going to complete 100 volunteer hours this summer to qualify for an advanced diploma, I have some ideas for clubs to start, Im planning on doing data science internships and complete a certification by IBM in Data Science next summer. Would this be enough? Do I need to do more?

Edit: to clarify in my school an A+ (98-100) is a 4.3, an A (93-97) is a 4, and an A- (90-92) is a 3.7
