Email the staffer once or twice, ask few people if they can involve you somehow - but after that keep it low. In this way you form a good first impression as being enthusiastic and eager to work. And as pointed out on this website - first impressions are important. If you don't ask for work then there's another side of the coin - people can assume you are not motivated since it's common for interns to ask and be proactive. I remember on my first day when I met my MD - he genuinely said I should ask the staffer for work to make a good impression.
