I am seeking instructions or howto to completely remove user profile synchronization service from single server install of SharePoint 2013 to start fresh as I am unable to move past the "starting" stage or resolve my issues following Harber's documentation.

Thanks

If you have nothing important in the User Profile Service Application, just delete it. You can do that from the Service Applications page in Central Administration. See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee721052.aspx.

As John indicated, just delete the UPA, then stop the Service Instance.

Stop-SPServiceInstance | where {$_.TypeName -eq "User Profile Synchronization Service"}
