Born in Tipperary (Ireland) on May, 3rd 1976

Denis grew up in Tipperary. He began his career as a jockey, having been taught to ride by his grandfather. As he grew up, he simply became “too tall and too heavy” to be a jockey. Instead, he concentrated on showjumping, gaining experience in Germany in the yard of Peter & Helena Weinberg near Aachen. In 1997, he moved on to Münster into the stable of family Kemper. Three years later he won his first international Grand Prix with Luigy K. Since 2004 he runs is own stable at the Kemper family Estate. Denis is supported by the Swiss Pharmaceutical Industrialist Thomas Straumann.
