The following seems to work:

int height = ((TFT_eSPI&)Canvas).fontHeight();

I found a font I liked online, but was not sure how to gauge the height of the font and the placement of the text on the screen. I ended up using trial and error which kind of sucked due to the lengthy compile and upload process.
