Aspiring designer seeking summer internship!

The best advice I can offer is to go into the directory and write off to every feasable Design Studio thats within your geographical limitation. If your free to go wherever, then target Europe or as your first port of call.

Make sure your Portfolio is looking good showing sketching ability as your main area of focus as its the foundation of design. Focus on interior, as well as exterior concepts and try and include plans and abit of tech info preferebly in Autocad. Not all studios use Autocad for tech plans but its mostly the standard. Also mood boards should not be excluded especially when showing off interior work. Some Rhino or Alias ability is also a plus but overall show passion which it sounds like you have.

Include a PDF sample of your work, like a mini-folio, with all your emails including of course your CV.

Excellent advice from Londondesigner. There are also some yacht design offices in the Seattle area and in Florida.
