Finance career in Emerging Markets, PE

Hey, there.

I am junior in college and I have a dream of working at / creating my own PE firm that specializes in emerging markets.

I have researched a bit and found there are few big US PE firms (UMMs) engaging in such activity, maybe I am wrong so I will ask you to correct me if so.

I haven’t even started a career yet and I do not really know where to begin. So is there any advice on specific banks, PE firms, or consulting firms that will let me gain skills and network needed to achieve my goals?

And what are the most optimal career paths do you see, that I should take to be most knowledgeable in that matter?

I mean anything, whatever you will think is useful information for structuring my career path, I would really appreciate any help!
