John D. Tillman – President of Ecliptic Financial Advisors, Inc.

I am one of New Jersey's most experienced College Funding Planners, bringing 23 years of leadership in the insurance and financial planning industry.  I desire to provide every family I work with, a viable plan to effectively and affordably pay for a four year college education for each one of their college bound children. My passion for helping families deal with the rising cost of college started 12 years ago.  A number of my clients began to send their children off to college with little to no direction on how to pay for their education. It did not take long to realize that a huge gap existed in the financial planning industry when it came to educating clients on how to save and pay for their children’s college education. I have spent the last 12 years specializing in College Financial Aid Planning and have effectively helped over 1,000 families through the financial aid process. I spend my free time with my wife, Mia and our two children, Derrick and Anna at the beaches of the Jersey Shore or fishing on our boat in the summer.  I have started to ski again, after a 10 year break, in the beautiful mountains of Vermont during the winter now that my son, Derrick, has taken an interest in snow boarding.
