Internship and career advice help

Currently a sophomore at a non-target- (Babson, Bentley, Northeastern) for this summer I have an internship at an asset management firm and wanting some advice with how to forward. I belive that I want to go the HF route but really do not want to do banking, my interest is towards the HF side and banking would just be a stepping stone. Do I have to intern at a bank Summer 2024? Or could I intern at fund?
