Sophomore Summer Help

Salutations fellow apes!

I hope everyone is well.

I am reaching out to ask for help. I am a sophomore at a semi-target (top 3 LAC) with a 3.93 GPA and Econ major. I worked at Lazard Milano M&A last year through a connection but am looking for an opportunity in the USA now for sophomore summer. 

I loved working industrials all summer last year and would love to do it again. Let me know if anybody has any advice or suggestions,

Thanks,
