She switched to more defensive playing positions [4] while playing for Germany U20 during the 2010 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup. [5] Two of Kemme's goals for 1. FFC Turbine Potsdam, both long-range shots, were included in the 10 best goals of the German Football Association's Women's Goal of the Season 2014–2015 shortlist. [6]

Kemme combined her football career with her police studies at Brandenburg's police training college. [7]
