In 2018, Williams signed with Specialized-Rocket Espresso fixie criterium racing team at the Red Hook Crit.

The team allowed Williams to compete as an independent rider in road races as well. Williams won both the road race and criterium national championships in 2018. He placed in the top 3 in 30 of the 35 races he rode that year.

As a teen, Williams's father had introduced him to racer Rahsaan Bahati, and was from Bahati that Willaims realized he could go professional and race in Europe. Williams joined the Rock Racing team in 2007—the same team his mentor Bahati raced for—while still racing with the national team. Rock Racing folded in 2009 and Williams moved to Axel Merckx’s Trek-Livestrong development team for the 2010 racing season. In 2010, Williams went to Europe where he had success in Kermesse races in Belgium. He was a domestique for Taylor Phinney in the 2010 Paris–Roubaix Espoirs race that Phinney won. Although the national team coaches felt that Williams had a lot of potential, Williams decided not to go back to Europe after flying home to visit his family during the 2010 season.

Williams did well in the sport, winning many Criteriums in California as a teen. His goal was to join the US National Team, but felt that they ignored him despite his racing results. Williams eventually made the team after winning the 2006 Junior Track National Championship in Keirin. The National Team wanted Williams to focus on track cycling but he loved road racing and wanted to continue training for that.
