In order to obtain a profession, in 2012 he entered the Stepanavan Agricultural College, choosing the specialty of Veterinary. In parallel with his study, he began to deal with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of certain animal diseases.

As a hardworking person who always wants to improve his knowledge and skills, Aleksan decided to get a higher education and already in 2016, he was admitted to the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and Animal Husbandry of the National Agrarian University of Armenia, choosing the specialization of a sanitary expert.

Aleksan had been providing veterinary services for many years in more than 5 settlements of Shirak region, when in 2022, at the urging of farmers, he made a decision to specialize in the artificial insemination of the cattle.

In the first half of 2023, he inseminated 320 cows, which were the animals of 110 farmers. Next year, he plans to double this result at least.
