Freshman Intership Opps for the Summer

Hey!

So I'm a freshman and I'm in California (SF) for winter break and I want to find an internship (Investment Banking) or something related for the summer because I don't have a study abroad or anything else in line for me. I want to end up in SF in hopefully a tech banking role (that's the dream). I wanted to see if I could network in SF and do some cold calls/informational interviews. I'll be here till the end of January so I have some time but I was wondering how to go about it.

What do you recommend I do to be as productive as I can? I know it's a bit early lol but i'm interested in seeing what I can do and learn. Thank you!
