Career Advice - S&T

Hi, it's my first post and would very much appreciate if someone could give me his opinion.

I am a 21 years old first-year student enrolled in a Double Degree Program: MSc in Accounting and Finance at Bocconi University and M.A in Quantitative Economics and Finance at HSG St.Gallen. Previously, I completed a BSc (Hons) in Finance with a 3.95 GPA in a non-target university, where I finished with a thesis in arbitrage and martingale measures.

While attending full-time lectures, I am actually doing a 6 months internship in Asset Management department at Edmond de Rothschild in Milan.

My greatest ambition is to work in S&T and I would really appreciate any career advice/academic path required to get this opportunity. Based on this information, do I have a concrete possibility to succeed?

Thank you for your attention.
