Landing an IB job in NYC

Hi. I go to a nontarget in the southwest US and really have a desire to move out to NYC post-grad for IB. I have a SA position for this summer at a LMM boutique and want to know how difficult it will be for someone of this background to get out to NYC in IB. My school only has a few alums in IB in NYC and I plan on reaching out to them, but other than that I don't really know where to start or if it is even a possibility with my background that I can get out there. Would anyone be willing to share any thoughts?
