We're less than a week away from our 2026 Forecast Event at Hudson's Detroit, and we're excited to introduce our next featured speaker: Andy Buckley of NBC's The Office!
Before audiences knew him as David Wallace, CFO of Dunder Mifflin on The Office, Andy Buckley was building a successful career in finance. Five years into his career as a Financial Advisor at Merrill Lynch, where he was part of a team managing more than $500 million in personal assets, Andy received an unexpected call that would change his life: an opportunity to appear on NBC's hit comedy The Office.
His real-world experience in finance proved to be the perfect preparation for his fictional role as Dunder Mifflin's CFO. Remarkably, Andy continued working at Merrill Lynch for another six years while appearing on the show, eventually transitioning into a full-time acting career.
Since then, he's built an impressive résumé across television and film. His television credits include HBO's Avenue 5, alongside Hugh Laurie and Josh Gad, and Netflix's FUBAR, starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.
On the big screen, Andy has appeared alongside an incredible lineup of talent, including Will Ferrell, Mark Wahlberg, Michael Keaton, Jeremy Renner, Chris Pratt, Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy. His film credits include The Other Guys, The House, Jurassic World, The Heat, Bridesmaids, Lady Bird and Bombshell.
A Boston native who grew up in several cities across the country, Andy attended Stanford University, where he also played on the golf team during his first two years.
From managing financial portfolios to playing one of television's most recognizable CFOs, Andy brings a truly unique perspective on career pivots, taking unexpected opportunities and embracing the possibilities that come with them.
We look forward to welcoming Andy Buckley to the stage at Hudson's Detroit!
