Cybermusings,
Your profile looks good. You are on the young side but already have leadership stories to talk about, and your gender is an asset for you. You may not quite be at the Columbia or Wharton level yet, but might be in a year if you can continue to build on your leadership in and outside of work. NYU looks more achievable, and other finance-strong schools where you will have a decent chance include Duke, Michigan, Yale, and Rochester. Again, if you could add one more strong year of increased leadership experiences you could be more confident about aiming higher (your GMAT is fine). Maybe this is out of your hands on the professional side, but in your extracurriculars you may have more freedom in finding some opportunities to show leadership and impact.
Hope this helps,
