Tessa M. Vadric, (born September 24, 1886) is the General Secretary of the Kyotakavian Union and Workers Council having previously been the Chair of the Nodstok section of the UUSM (1906-1918). Vadric is a prominent trade unionist in Kyotakavia, best known for organising and leading the 1924 general strike, a major event in the build-up to the 1925 Kyotakavian general election, as well as for her role in the organisation of the 1907 general strike which forced a government reversal on public service cuts.

She worked as a mechanic in Nowa Grudak, Nodstok State from the age of 15, joining the United Union of Steelworkers and Mechanics a year later and participating in the 1902 steelworker strikes which began in opposition to the majority Populist-led Government's plan to sell the Nodstok Steel Company to a private Svozgardan investor.

She is a member of the Kyotakavian United Syndicalist and Socialist Coalition having joined the party at 16 and has twice been a party constituency candidate.

Early Life

Vadric was born to Elana Vadric, a teacher and Kelbor Vadric, a miner in Holdmir, in Nodstok State, Kyotakavia on the 24 September, 1886 and attended a local trades school during her early childhood where she is reported to have displayed a keen interest in vehicles and their maintenance.

She began an apprenticeship with the Nodstok Steel Company in 1901 as a mechanic and joined the UUSM as a member in 1902, three months before the steel workers went on strike with the announcement of Government plans to sell the nationalised steel company to a private investor (later revealed to be Crown-Prince Marius of the Svozgardan Royal Family.)
