She retired due to combat-related PTSD and pursued law to help others facing difficult circumstances. Parady earned her Bachelor of Science in Human Development and Family Studies from the University of New Hampshire in 1993, her Master of Arts in Healthcare Administration from Webster University in 1995, and her Juris Doctor from Campbell University Norman A.
