    It would require modifying your stylesheet - style.css in the root of the child theme directory. You can reduce the link top and bottom padding.

    /* Current padding - 28px on the top and bottom */
    .genesis-nav-menu a {
        padding: 28px 24px;
        padding: 2.8rem 2.4rem;
    }
    /* Padding reduced to 20px on the top and bottom */
    .genesis-nav-menu a {
        padding: 20px 24px;
        padding: 2rem 2.4rem;
    }
