Just add this code to your code. 

a.nav-link {
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
}

here is the working codepen for your code. https://codepen.io/irinnahar/pen/KjGpoL

You can use css vertical-align to fix this issue. I recommend to apply to all Material Icons.

.material-icons {
  vertical-align: middle;
}

Alternatively you may use margin-right: 5px for a bit more breathing space.
