UPPER WEST SIDE — A high-powered financial planner was found dead in her Upper West Side bathtub by her 9-year-old daughter early Thursday morning, police said.
Shele Covlin, 47, a senior vice president for investments and private Wealth advisor at UBS Wealth Management, was found dead at her home on West 68th Street at Broadway shortly after 7 a.m. Thursday morning.
Police were summoned to the building by a call about an unconscious woman. Emergency Medical Service responders declared Covlin dead on the scene.
Police said the death appears to be an accident, based on a laceration on the back of her head and other injuries "consistent with a fall."
Covlin moved to UBS in February from Merrill Lynch Global Wealth Management, where she had spent over 24 years, Dow Jones Newswires reported.
She worked at both offices along with her father, Joel Danishefsky and her brother Philip Danishefsky, with whom she reportedly oversaw close to $600 million in assets and combined production, Dow Jones said.
