 * Right now, we feel like there’s too much white space in the header. I tried shrinking
   the logo, but the white space was still too much.
 * How can we adjust the padding to remove some space from the top and bottom?

 * You can try reducing the padding with something like this in your custom CSS,
   adjusting the values as you like:
 *     ```
       .site-branding {
         padding-bottom: 10px;
         padding-top: 10px;
       }
       ```
