Hey there,
Well overall I think your profile is pretty good. As a female candidate from a central asian country (very rare for B-school) your profile will be interesting. Your work expeirence is good and internships seem great as well. I think the only thing to really worry about now is that GMAT. If you can really pull a 770, you should have no problem getting into top MFin programs if your essays and recommendations are equally excellent.
I hope this helps!
Best,
JF
