Brough earned a degree in mathematics from the University of Utah. He worked with computers and in management and eventually founded his own computer services company. From 1978 to 1981 Brough was the president of the Minnesota Minneapolis Mission of the LDS Church.

From 1982 to 1983, Brough was a member of the general board of the LDS Church's Young Men organization.[2] Brough served as the bishop of the church's Kaysville Ward from 1983 to 1987. From 1985 to 1986 he also served as executive secretary of the Utah North Area Presidency. He served as a regional representative from 1987 to 1988. He was a resident of Kaysville at the time of his call as a general authority.

During part of his time as a general authority, Brough served as president of the Asia Area of the LDS Church.[3] In this capacity, Brough was closely involved with the opening of church missionary work in Mongolia.[4] He also served as a conselor in the general presidency of the Young Men organization.[5] After his time as a member of the Presidency of the Seventy, Brough served as president of the North America Southeast Area.[6]
