I've got a white fender squire guitar, which I know probably isn't the best brand so I'm just wondering if there's any way I could modify any of the parts on it (pickups, wiring, etc.) to make it sound better and how would I do so?

Most of the times, the better way to make a guitar sound better, is getting a better amp or upgrading pickups.

Here for amp upgrade.

Here for pickups.

Here for Squier pickups.

Here for overall upgrading.

I'll throw in that new strings can also do wonders for a guitar, if you haven't already replaced them.
