Networking Advice - How many people from the same bank should I reach out to?

Hello all,

I am a sophomore at a non-target. I am looking to intern with small IBs local to me (10-30 employees).
How many people from the same firm should I contact?

My initial thought was to contact one individual who focuses on an area I'm interested in, but I would love to hear what you think.
