How can I combine my business/corporate communication degree with my passion for animals to create a meaningful career, and what steps should I be taking now—such as internships, networking, or skill-building—to stand out to employers in that space?

I am a senior at Baruch College, I have never had any internships, and I feel quite stuck on what I want to do with my degree/what exact fields interest me. I just know my interest in animals.
