Couple of people in here already have suggested I start an agency that consult accessibility, so I will start that soon. I have to get couple of classes on accessibility to check off some formal education checkmark, because a lot of people won't take me seriously if my professional opinion isn't backed up with some sort of formal education. Even though, I use screen readers daily to write code, to read articles, even to do some light editing with iMovie since I have few remaining eyesight.

The formal certificates will help in some situations, but don't assume you need them for everything right from the start. Speaking for myself, I would have happily hired a consultant with the experience of being blind themselves over anyone with a certificate.

Another thought is that for one of the projects I had the accessibility requirement came from the UK government. It was a project being used in a public service department and it was a requirement for them that every bit of software they purchased was accessible. If you're in the UK you may find the public sector is a good place the look.
