He was born on 12 March 1972 in the settlement of Lachinovo in the Kastorensky District of Kursk Oblast, then part of the Soviet Union.

Breyev began his working life as an engineer at the Aleksandrovsky Stud Farm No. 12, a horse breeding enterprise in the region. He later moved into the agricultural trade, and in 2026 he was working for Kursk Agroterminal, part of the Sodruzhestvo group of companies.

He joined the LDPR in 2005.

In 2026 Breyev was elected to the eighth convocation of the Kursk Oblast Duma on the LDPR party list, and he took up his seat on 8 October 2026. It was the highest office of a political life built over many years in district and village politics.
