Malikh Williams

About Malikh

I'm a licensed sports dietitian with a passion for helping athletes unlock their full potential through food, education, and culturally informed care. My work is grounded in performance nutrition, but my approach goes beyond the numbers. I believe in meeting people where they are, honoring their lived experiences, and creating practical, personalized strategies that support both athletic goals and long-term health. Whether you're a professional athlete, student-athlete, or someone working toward your next level, I’m here to guide you with real talk, evidence-based practices, and a focus on sustainable progress — not quick fixes. When I’m not working with athletes, I’m staying active myself, mentoring future dietitians of color, and pushing to make the nutrition space more inclusive, accessible, and empowering for everyone.

Approach to care

I bring a culturally informed, athlete-centered approach to nutrition care—one that recognizes both the physical demands of sport and the lived experiences of underrepresented communities. My practice is rooted in evidence-based performance nutrition, but I also prioritize empathy, trust, and authenticity in every athlete relationship. Whether working with elite professionals or youth athletes, I aim to bridge gaps in access, representation, and understanding within sports nutrition. I create inclusive, realistic plans that honor cultural foodways, personal values, and individual goals—empowering athletes to fuel not just for performance, but for long-term health and confidence. Through advocacy, mentorship, and education, I’m committed to shifting the narrative around who gets seen and supported in the field of dietetics. Nutrition is not one-size-fits-all, and neither is care. I’m here to change the game—on and off the field.

In our first session, the focus is on you — your story, your goals, and how I can best support you as your sports dietitian. This session is a judgment-free space to have real conversations about your nutrition, training, lifestyle, and overall relationship with food.
