While residing in the United States, Crescimbeni is a 2007 Florida High School state champion, and a member of the Florida Gators swimming and diving team under head coach Gregg Troy.[2]
Crescimbeni represented his parents' homeland Peru at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where he competed in the men's 200 m butterfly.
