Field error , trying to reference custom user model - django

Question

Got no idea what's going on here. First time using a custom user model so I'm having trouble referencing the user object in views. I know I need to use 'get_user_model' , but I'm not sure how to implement it. I tried doing a couple things but I'm still stuck.
error
