'27 Pod looking for '26 internship - Hungry and Hard Working

Hope you're all doing well.

I'm a sophomore, I love the markets, and will be joining one of the pod programs for '27. Haven't had much success finding a '26 internship - give me a case study or a stock just for you to prove my teachability and skill, and I'll do a full model write-up, PPT, anything. I'm hungry, I love stocks, and I know I'll make your time worth it. I'll also send 2 ideas I have, one long and one short (first catalyst hit today for the short).

Thank you for your time, and I'd appreciate any advice on my career moving forward or on finding an internship. 

will respond to anything, wso message, or rabagaba898 @ gmail . com
