I have a question that I can’t seem to find an answer too.  So normally a person would have a Roth IRA account and contribute the max every year into the one account.  So if I have to do a conversion every year, does that mean I’ll end up with multiple IRA accounts or can I just contribute to the original conversion account until I retire?  Thanks.
You can continue to contribute to your original Roth IRA account after a conversion, you do not need to open new Roth IRA accounts every time you convert. Once the money is in the Roth IRA, it can stay there and grow tax-free. 

During the conversion process, you're essentially moving money from a Traditional IRA (or similar tax-deferred account) to a Roth IRA. This can be done within the same account if your brokerage allows it, or you might move the funds to a new Roth IRA account. 

However, once the funds are in a Roth IRA, any additional contributions you make for the year can be added to that same account, up to the annual limit (which is $6,000 in 2021 if you are under 50, and $7,000 if you are 50 or older). 

Remember, Roth IRA conversions can have tax implications, as you're moving money from a tax-deferred account to an account funded with after-tax dollars. It's always a good idea to consult with a tax advisor or financial planner to understand the implications for your specific situation.
