Here is an example:

\documentclass[10pt,a4paper,sans]{moderncv}        % possible options include font size ('10pt', '11pt' and '12pt'), paper size ('a4paper', 'letterpaper', 'a5paper', 'legalpaper', 'executivepaper' and 'landscape') and font family ('sans' and 'roman')

\renewcommand{\familydefault}{\sfdefault}         % to set the default font; use '\sfdefault' for the default sans serif font, '\rmdefault' for the default roman one, or any tex font name


% modern themes
\moderncvstyle{banking}                            % style options are 'casual' (default), 'classic', 'oldstyle' and 'banking'
\moderncvcolor{black}                                % color options 'blue' (default), 'orange', 'green', 'red', 'purple', 'grey' and 'black'


% character encoding
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}


% adjust the page margins
\usepackage[margin=0.63in]{geometry}
\usepackage{import}
\nopagenumbers{}


% personal data
\name{Firstname}{Lastname}
\phone[mobile]{+1 (111) 111-1111}

\email{myemail@gmail.com}

\social{https://www.linkedin.com/in/mylinkedin}
\homepage{mywebsite.com}


\pagenumbering{gobble}


%----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

\begin{document}


\makecvtitle


\end{document}

My question is simple: How can I bring the title up closer to the top of the page so that there is less white space at the very top?

If your resume is only one page long, you can adjust the top margin using geometry:

\usepackage[margin=0.63in,top=0.5in]{geometry}

margin sets all the margins, followed by a smaller specification just for the top.

If your resume is more than one page long and you only want to achieve this for the first page, then insert a negative \vspace (starred version, since you're at the top of the page):

\vspace*{-0.5in}

\makecvtitle
