About Kristin Budzik Lambert

I’m a finance leader with a passion for bringing clarity to complexity. As Senior Manager of FP & A at GD Energy Products, I lead financial planning and analysis across the organization—translating data into insights that drive performance, strategy, and growth. I began my career at a Big 4 public accounting firm, where I built a strong technical foundation and learned the value of data integrity, automation, and sound control environments. From there, I moved into the pharmaceutical, renewable energy, and industrial sectors, broadening my perspective and honing my ability to navigate dynamic, fast-changing businesses. What drives me most is helping organizations make smarter, more confident decisions. Whether it’s forecasting, strategic planning, or simplifying complex financials for business leaders, I aim to connect numbers to strategy in meaningful ways. I’m equally passionate about developing people and building collaborative, high-performing teams that align finance closely with organizational goals.
