How to export mongoose schema using typescript?

Question

I have created mongoose schema for user collection now i am trying to import in the controller it shows error no exported member 'User'. Did you mean 'IUser'? no exported member 'User'. Did you mean 'IUser'? how to fix this issue?

user.model.ts

import mongoose, { Schema } from 'mongoose';

export interface IUser extends mongoose.Document {
  firstName: string,
  lastName: string,
  userName: string 
  password: string 
}
 const UserSchema: Schema = new Schema({
    firstName: {
        type: String,
        required: true
      },
    lastName: {
        type: String,
        required: true
      },
   userName: {
    type: String,
    required: true
  },
   password: {
    type: String,
    required: true
  }
});

export default mongoose.model('User', UserSchema);

user.controller.ts

import { Request, Response } from 'express';
import { User } from './user.model'

For Typescript:

export interface IUser extends mongoose.Document {
  name: string; 
  somethingElse?: number; 
};

export const UserSchema = new mongoose.Schema({
  name: {type:String, required: true},
  somethingElse: Number,
});

const User = mongoose.model<IUser>('User', UserSchema);
export default User;
