Alina Tapia Romero, founder of Eazy Start Insurance, turned childhood dreams and real-life challenges into a thriving Austin-based business. Born in Guanajuato, Mexico, and brought to the U.S. at age 7 after losing her mother, Alina found her calling in the insurance industry by chance but built her agency with purpose.
In 2021, with a vision to educate and empower her community through accessible, honest insurance guidance, Alina launched Eazy Start Insurance. The name was inspired by a client who told her, “It’s so easy to get insurance with you because your character makes it easy.” That simple compliment became the brand’s identity and what sets it apart.
Alina was introduced to EGBI while preparing to open her business. She credits the organization with helping her understand the foundational steps of launching and running a business. From business planning to marketing strategies, EGBI’s support gave her the confidence to move forward.
As her agency grew, Alina chose to give back, volunteering with EGBI to mentor aspiring entrepreneurs. Her goal is to help others the same way she was helped: through guidance, encouragement, and shared experience. She remains an active supporter of EGBI’s mission and continues to uplift others in her community.
Today, Alina dreams of expanding Eazy Start Insurance across Texas, and sees EGBI as a continuing partner, ready to help at any step in that journey.
