Resume - Edward Goldfarb
1830 Radius Drive Hollywood, FL 33020 - 954-605-8427 - Goldfarb4America@gmail.com
PROFESSIONAL SUMMARY
"I, Edward Joel Goldfarb, having been appointed an officer in the Navy of the United States, in the grade of Ensign do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign or domestic, and bare true faith and allegiance to the same. So, help me God." This is the Oath I took when I received my commission as a Naval Officer. There is no expiration date on this Oath and I will take it to my grave. Everyone in Congress took a similar Oath. Unfortunately, it appears many must think there is an expiration date or it doesn't apply to them.
My unparalleled accomplishments coupled with life experiences as a Navy Fighter Pilot, Deputy Sheriff, Fortune Corporation Department Head and Business Owner not only make me a formidable candidate, but also provide me with Strong Negotiation and Problem-Solving skills that have been beneficial in working towards Win-Win solutions.
My personality will not allow me to be intimidated or compromised. My love for OUR COUNTRY will not allow me to be bought or sold. I will never SELL OUT my fellow Americans or OUR COUNTRY!
