Hampe competed for the SC Dynamo Berlin / Sportvereinigung (SV) Dynamo and received a gold medal in single sculls at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul.[1][2] In October 1986, she was awarded a Star of People's Friendship in gold (second class) for her sporting success.[3]

In the 1987 season, Hampe was displaced from the single scull by Martina Schröter who had returned after a break. Hampe joined the quad scull team, herself having replaced Kerstin Hinze.[4] She competed under her maiden name until the end of the 1987 rowing season and had married by mid-October 1987. Her husband, Dirk Behrendt, is a rowing trainer.[5]
