Three smiling children sit together on a hardwood floor in a dining room: an older girl holds a baby, while a young boy sits beside them.
A group of climbers in winter clothing stands on a snowy mountain ridge beside an ice-covered rock face.
Two men posing together outdoors with a cityscape and hills in the background.
A smiling couple stand together beneath colorful fabric decorations, wearing traditional Indian wedding attire and flower garlands. The man wears a white outfit with a green-and-gold sash, and the woman wears a red-orange sari with jewelry and decorative forehead markings.
An older man in a dark suit and patterned tie sits beside a large crystal trophy on a wooden table in a room with tall windows.
A graduate in academic regalia shakes hands with a person in a light-blue academic gown beside a podium, in front of a Columbia University College of Physicians and Surgeons banner.

Sovana Moore, M.D., ‘00, HS ‘01, BS ‘96, and her husband, Steve Moore, BS ‘96, welcomed their third child, Sloan, who joins big sister Shelby and big brother Austin.
