Import file from packages folder structure in Meteor

I can't seem to get an import statement to work within my packages folder.

I have a file structure like the following:

-client
-model
  -users.js
-packages
  -mobile
  -browser
    -client
      -auth
        -login
          -login.component.js

in login.component.js I need to import { user } from '/model/users.js'. Is this possible? If so how do I do it? If not what is a good workaround?

Edit: users.js

const User = Class.create({
  name: 'User',
  collection: Meteor.users,
  secured: true,
  fields: {
     username: {type: String },
     createdAt: { type: Date },
     userData: { type: UserData, optional:true },
    fullName: {
       type: String,
       resolve(doc) {
         if (doc && doc.userData)
           return doc.userData.firstName + ' ' + doc.userData.lastName;
         else {
           "no name"
         }
       }
     }
   }
 });
 export { User };

import statements are necessary for files in the /imports folder. Everything outside of that folder will be auto-loaded for you, so you don't need to import it manually.

More detail here: https://guide.meteor.com/structure.html#intro-to-import-export

Just make sure your User object is global, i.e., change

const User = Class.create({

to 

User = Class.create({
