Andy Buckley Speaker Biography
After his initial shot at acting didn’t pan out, Andy Buckley was 5 years into his career as a Financial Advisor at Merrill Lynch, part of a team managing over $500 million in personal assets, when he got the luckiest phone call of his life - the offer to appear on the NBC comedy, ‘The Office.’ The FA position was the perfect background for his fictional role as David Wallace, CFO of the Dunder Mifflin Paper Company. Buckley stayed at Merrill Lynch for 6 more years, while continuing his role on ’The Office,’ which has led to many other acting opportunities.
He presently has regular roles on the HBO comedy ‘Avenue 5,’ opposite Hugh Laurie and Josh Gad, as well as the upcoming Netflix action comedy series, ‘FUBAR,’ starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Other movies he’s appeared in include Lady Bird, Bridesmaids, Bombshell and the recent comedy ‘Most Guys Are Losers,’ opposite Mira Sorvino.

Andy was such a pleasure to work with. He went above and beyond what was expected of him (which was our keynote session). He took the time to attend our network event the night before where he met everyone, took pictures, signed autographs, and got to know more about our organization. He also attended lunch the day of his keynote and sat with attendees. During his keynote, he remembered the names of specific attendees and called them out (only adding to their experience). He was kind, attentive, and such a joy to work with. I can't say enough great things about Andy and would highly recommend him for any event.
