The problem is that UX requires business knowledge, psychology, design, and code all working in concert with each other. The education system does not treat people to think holistically. It's why designers, coders and biz dev all hate each other. The problem is that all innovation happens at the nexus of these disciplines. Entrepreneurs often drop out out of school because of this. So the answer: They don't exist in mass because they are all self-trained. You will find them in pockets working in various industries and obviously in startups but it's all quite haphazard. My recommendation: 1) Learn as much as you can yourself. Wireframe some stuff in plain HTML/JS and show people the clickable design and refine from there. Iterate, iterate. Make yourself care. 2) Read Amy Hoy. Most of what she writes is "aha!" inducing.
