Hi Susie welcome to goy - this looks like a variegated fig plant.Quite robust removing damaged leaves wont hurt.Re - pot when you notice roots appearing from base of pot.Can get tall and leggy and lower leaves fade and fall , new growth can be pinched out once you feel tall enough.Appreciate spray misting of leaves do not like standing in water saucers.
Hope this helps - sure someone will know proper botanical name and more info.assuming I got right plant!
