Do you have any budget limits? You would likely be full pay at UCLA or UC Berkeley.

The University of Washington is a very good university. Given how strong it is, I would be reluctant to pay the extra cost for UCLA or UCB unless you parents are very wealthy.

I do not know whether U.Washington would be a safety for you. If it is, then given how strong it is, to me it makes sense to apply to a second safety (possibly Washington State) and then with solid safeties in place go for it and apply to Brown and Cornell and your other reach schools if the NPC says they are affordable or you are fine with being full pay. If you want to look across your northern border UBC would also be a strong choice, and should be no worse than a match given your excellent stats.

A lot of internships evaporated this summer because of the pandemic. You are in good company.
