Do you use work email or personal email when cold-emailing for internship (context in post)

Using my school's alumni database to cold-email seniors at small PE firms for informational interviews. In the database, many people general have multiple emails available, although one is generally designated as their primary email. When this is their personal email, do I use that one, even if they also have a work email posted?
