If I were you, I would position myself as an educator and consultant on the subject. Most UI developers have picked up tidbits here and there about accessibility. You can get pretty far by honoring semantic html and you learn other things through reading, receiving code feedback etc. But I don't know anybody who tests their code rigorously using the same tools that an actual blind person would use. I understand sighted workflows, but not blind ones. We strive for 100% accessibility but everybody only knows what they know. I think that you could very easily establish yourself as the a11y guy and make money through several routes including - auditing websites for a11y - training staff - offering paid online content / courses - independently auditing websites and using your results to sell them in fixing it or training staff Obviously the trick of this is that you have to have some kind of track record as the a11y guy. Let me tell you I would read the heck out of a blog written by a blind developer talking about good and bad websites that he has to interact with. I would absolutely watch YouTube videos about it. And if you reached out to a business and told them "hey, your website is unusable for blind people, but I can help fix it for $___", I think that many of them would take it seriously.
