How is this? Too short? Not specific enough? Any help would be appreciated!

Hi XXX,

My name is XXX and I'm currently a sophomore at XXX University. I'm currently pursuing a career in investment banking and came across your LinkedIn profile. I would love to hear about some of your experiences, insights, and role at XXX firm. I know your schedule is really busy, but would you be willing to spare some time for a brief chat? Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you!

Kind Regards,
 XXX
